Phase plane — A phase plane is a visual display of certain characteristics of certain kinds of differential equations.Certain systems of differential equations can be written in the form::dx/dt = Cx where C may be any combination of constants in order to… … Wikipedia
Phase portrait — A phase portrait is a geometric representation of the trajectories of a dynamical system in the phase plane. Each set of initial conditions is representated by a different curve, or point.Phase portraits are an invaluable tool in studying… … Wikipedia
Phase space — In mathematics and physics, a phase space, introduced by Willard Gibbs in 1901, is a space in which all possible states of a system are represented, with each possible state of the system corresponding to one unique point in the phase space. For… … Wikipedia
