Visualizing Dynamical Systems near Critical Points
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we present two visualization techniques. One uses the topological structure of the dynamical system near critical points to build an abstract description of the ow. The other places bunches of streamlets around the critical points to visualize the ow characteristics locally. Combining both methods a powerful visualization technique is present, since both the topological information as well as intuitive visual cues are provided.

Fractional dynamical systems: A fresh view on the local qualitative theorems
The aim of this work is to describe the qualitative behavior of the solution set of a given system of fractional differential equations and limiting behavior of the dynamical system or flow defined by the system of fractional differential equations. In order to achieve this goal, it is first necessary to develop the local theory for fractional nonlinear systems. This is done by the extension of...
متن کاملDetermination of Stability Domains for Nonlinear Dynamical Systems Using the Weighted Residuals Method
Finding a suitable estimation of stability domain around stable equilibrium points is an important issue in the study of nonlinear dynamical systems. This paper intends to apply a set of analytical-numerical methods to estimate the region of attraction for autonomous nonlinear systems. In mechanical and structural engineering, autonomous systems could be found in large deformation problems or c...
متن کاملCurvature Measures of 3D Vector Fields and their Applications
Tangent curves are a powerful tool for analyzing and visualizing vector fields. In this paper two of their most important properties are examined: their curvature and torsion. Furthermore, the concept of normal surfaces is introduced to the theory of 3D vector fields, and their Gaussian and mean curvature are analyzed. It is shown that those four curvature measures tend to infinity near critica...
متن کاملComplex systems analysis of series of blackouts: cascading failure, critical points, and self-organization.
We give an overview of a complex systems approach to large blackouts of electric power transmission systems caused by cascading failure. Instead of looking at the details of particular blackouts, we study the statistics and dynamics of series of blackouts with approximate global models. Blackout data from several countries suggest that the frequency of large blackouts is governed by a power law...
متن کاملAnalyzing the Population Based Incremental Learning Algorithm by Means of Discrete Dynamical Systems
In this paper the convergence behavior of the population based incremental learning algorithm (PBIL) is analyzed using discrete dynamical systems. A discrete dynamical system is associated with the PBIL algorithm. We demonstrate that the behavior of the PBIL algorithm follows the iterates of the discrete dynamical system for a long time when the parameter Α is near zero. We show that all the po...
