Coupled oscillators
Do you have questions or comments about this model? Ask them here! (You'll first need to log in.)
WHAT IS IT?
The Stuart-Landau oscillator model. Several oscillators are coupled.
HOW IT WORKS
Each node (turtle) represent a single oscillator: a variable 'z' which is complex (i.e. z = a + i*b).
The nodes coordinates represent both real part and imaginary part of 'z' (i.e. xcor is the real part and ycor is the imaginary part).
Each node follows the following equation of motion:
dz/dt = (lambda + iomega - |z|^2)z + sigma*c
Where lambda and omega are control parameters.
|z| represents the modulus of the complex number z.
sigma is the strength of the coupling (interaction) between linked nodes.
c represents the coupling and corresponds to the weighted average of distance between nodes (some kind of center of mass).
All the nodes are linked together via a "Watts and Strogatz Small World" where blue links are weighted +1 (excitatory links) and red links are weighted -1 (inhibitory links)
HOW TO USE IT
Choose the number of nodes (note that in this model the nodes do not interact with each other, so you can simply put one node) with the 'nb-node slider'.
Choose the values of lambda and omega.
Set dt (I usually use 0.001). This is the increment of time in the model. For more details about 'dt' see Euler algorithm for numerical simulation of derivative equations.
Choose if you want to see the trajectories of the nodes or if you want to see the link.
Choose the K and beta parameters for the Watts and Strogatz Small World algorithm.
Choose sigma, the strength of the coupling.
Push 'setup' and 'go' :)
THINGS TO NOTICE
Drawing the trajectories helps to see the the stable region (here a cycle).
THINGS TO TRY
Move lambda and omega to see their influence on the behaviour of the nodes. Try with only two or three nodes to see the impact of the coupling.
EXTENDING THE MODEL
You could change the way the nodes are coupled.

I used the code for complex operations directly from the "Mandelbrot model". Thanks, it was really helpful.
