Birhythmicity is evident in many nonlinear systems, which include physical and biological systems. In some living systems, birhythmicity is necessary for response to the varying environment while unnecessary in some physical systems as it limits their efficiency. Therefore, its control is an important area of research. This paper proposes a space-dependent intermittent control scheme capable of controlling birhythmicity in various dynamical systems. We apply the proposed control scheme in five nonlinear systems from diverse branches of natural science and demonstrate that the scheme is efficient enough to control the birhythmic oscillations in all the systems. We derive the analytical condition for controlling birhythmicity by applying harmonic decomposition and energy balance methods in a birhythmic van der Pol oscillator. Further, the efficacy of the control scheme is investigated through numerical and bifurcation analyses in a wide parameter space. Since the proposed control scheme is general and efficient, it may be employed to control birhythmicity in several dynamical systems.
