This study examines the stochastic bifurcation phenomenon in a fractional and multistable Rayleigh-Duffing oscillator subjected to recycling noise excitation. First, using the harmonic balance method and minimizing the mean-square error, an approximate integer-order equivalent system is derived for the original fractional-order system. Subsequently, the steady-state probability density function (sPDF) of the system amplitude is obtained via stochastic averaging. The critical conditions for stochastic P-bifurcation (SPB) are then determined using singularity theory. The stationary PDF curves of the system amplitude are qualitatively analyzed across regions delineated by transition set curves. Finally, Monte Carlo simulations confirm the analytical findings, validating the theoretical framework. These results provide insights for improving system response control through fractionalorder controller design.
