Thus simple harmonic motion is a type of periodic motion. If energy is lost in the system, then the mass exhibits damped oscillation. Note if the real space and phase space plot are not co-linear, the phase space motion becomes elliptical. The area enclosed depends on the amplitude and the maximum momentum.
Diagram showing the periodic orbit of a mass-spring system in simple harmonic motion. (Here the velocity and position axes have been reversed from the standard convention in order to align the two diagrams) Given a dynamical system (T, M, Φ) with T a group, M a set and Φ the evolution function
Oscillation is the repetitive or periodic variation, typically in time, of some measure about a central value (often a point of equilibrium) or between two or more different states. Familiar examples of oscillation include a swinging pendulum and alternating current. Oscillations can be used in physics to approximate complex interactions, such ...
There may easily be more than one microstate with the same macrostate. For example, for a fixed temperature, the system could have many dynamic configurations at the microscopic level. When used in this sense, a phase is a region of phase space where the system in question is in, for example, the liquid phase, or solid phase, etc.
A two-dimensional Poincaré section of the forced Duffing equation. In mathematics, particularly in dynamical systems, a first recurrence map or Poincaré map, named after Henri Poincaré, is the intersection of a periodic orbit in the state space of a continuous dynamical system with a certain lower-dimensional subspace, called the Poincaré section, transversal to the flow of the system.
Within each cluster, the swarmalators execute periodic motion in space and phase. Active phase wave: Swarmalators run in a space-phase vortex, with half running clockwise and the remaining half running counter-clockwise. To demarcate where each state arises and disappears as a parameters are changed, the rainbow order parameters,
An animation of the figure-8 solution to the three-body problem over a single period T ≃ 6.3259 [13] 20 examples of periodic solutions to the three-body problem. In the 1970s, Michel Hénon and Roger A. Broucke each found a set of solutions that form part of the same family of solutions: the Broucke–Hénon–Hadjidemetriou family. In this ...
Period doubling in the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation with periodic boundary conditions. The curves depict solutions of the Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation projected onto the energy phase plane (E, dE/dt), where E is the L 2-norm of the solution. For ν = 0.056, there exists a periodic orbit with period T ≈ 1.1759.
