Resource Overview
Poincare maps in nonlinear dynamics provide an efficient method to identify periodic, quasi-periodic, or chaotic motions; this program implements Poincare map visualization with numerical integration and cross-section detection algorithms.
Detailed Documentation
In nonlinear dynamics, chaos represents a deterministic yet apparently random motion pattern. Studying chaos enhances our understanding of natural phenomena and system behaviors. The Poincare map serves as a vital visualization tool that facilitates the identification of periodic, quasi-periodic, or chaotic dynamics in systems. This program implements Poincare map generation by numerically solving differential equations and detecting trajectory intersections with a predefined cross-section plane. Key algorithmic components include phase-space reconstruction, event detection for plane crossings, and scatter plot visualization of intersection points, providing researchers with an accessible tool for chaos analysis.
