SUBROUTINE DEM50 (NIN,NOUT) C$ (DEM50 - Flow Vectors) C$ Demonstrate the graphing of a vector field with PLTFV. The C$ illustrated field arises from Duffing's differential C$ equations which represent a damped harmonic oscillator with C$ a non-linear perturbation. These equations are C$ C$ dx/dt = y C$ C$ dy/dt = -a*x - b*y - c*x**2 C$ C$ where a, b, and c are suitable constants, usually in the C$ range 0.0..1.0. With (x,y) representing the coordinate of C$ a point on a rectangular grid, (dx/dt,dy/dt) represents the C$ vector field at that point. C$ (10-APR-82)
