Switching synchronization in 1-D memristive networks: An exact solution

We study a switching synchronization phenomenon taking place in one-dimensional memristive networks when the memristors switch from the high to low resistance state. It is assumed that the distributions of threshold voltages and switching rates of memristors are arbitrary. Using the Laplace transform, a set of non-linear equations describing the memristors dynamics is solved exactly, without any approximations. The time dependencies of memristances are found and it is shown that the voltage falls across memristors are proportional to their threshold voltages. A compact expression for the network switching time is derived.
