Oscillator

The Oscillator class, contained in the script oscillator.py, allows the user to create an oscillator object with specific parameters simulate it's oscillatory motion.

Numerical Method

The Euler-Cromer numerical method is used for solving the oscillator.

Usage Example

# Standard plot
m = Oscillator(i_length=9.8, i_ang=0.2, i_o=0, i_damp=0.5, ohm_d=0.66, f_d=1.2)
m.oscillate(1000, 0.04)
m.plot()

# poincare plot
m = Oscillator(i_length=9.8, i_ang=0.2, i_o=0, i_damp=0.5, ohm_d=0.66, f_d=1.2)
m.oscillate(1000, 0.04)
m.poincare_plot()
