Abstract
We have studied the motion of a particle in a periodic potential plus a bias, driven by a noise and a coherent forcing. The response (power spectrum) of the particle at the driving forcing frequency is considered for different values of the noise intensity and of the bias. It is shown via direct simulation that the response displays the phenomenon of stochastic resonance, although the phenomenology is somehow different from the one observed in the standard bistable system.
