A method is proposed to efficiently determine the basins of attraction of a nonlinear system’s different steady-state solutions. The phase space of the dynamical system is spacially discretized and the continuous problem in time is converted to an iterative mapping. By means of interpolation procedures, an improvement in the system accuracy over the Simple Cell Mapping technique is achieved. Both basins of attraction for a representative nonlinear system and characteristic system trajectories are generated and compared to exact solutions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
