Tous les systèmes hamiltoniens intégrables se ressemblent, mais chacun qui est non intégrable, il est non intégrable à sa manière
la composition (avec GMT)
As a design choice, vfplot plots only the arrows, it is not a general-purpose plotting program. The EPS vector output can be converted to other vector formats which could then be imported into various software (any notes from users doing this would be appreciated and could be added to this documentation).
I rather like GMT, the Generic Mapping tools, a collection of command-line tools for manipulating, projecting and plotting data, typically but not necessarily geographical.
The script below is typical, we set up some variables to hold
the GMT range (-R
) and projection (-J
)
options, then call grdsample
to increase the
resolution of a scalar background in grd/scalar.grd
,
then plotting the result with grdimage
. We make
a call to psxy
to plot the circle at the origin
of the plot.
It is the call to psimage
which adds the vfplot
arrows layer, see the -D
option to position and
scale the arrows to align with the rest of the plot.
Finally with the calls to psconvert
convert the
EPS plot to PDF (with -Tf
) for inclusion in a
document, and to PNG (with -Tg
) for display on
the web.
More details (and the result), see the rotating cylinder example plot.
