Poincare Sections of Hamiltonian Systems

Abstract

A set of Maplev R.3 software routines, for plotting 2D/3D projections of Poincaré surfaces-of-section of Hamiltonian dynamical systems, is presented. The package consists of a plotting-command plus a set of facility-commands for a quick setup of the Hamilton equations of motion, initial conditions for numerical experiments, and for the zooming of plots.
