i'm intersted in integrating ODEs (or systems of 1st order ODEs) that represent phase dynamics (oscillators) and therefore evolve on tori. i.e. the state has to be taken modulo 2 Pi whenever it 'leaves' the range [0,2*PI]? the simplest example is: x'[t] == 1 where x[t] -> Mod[x , 2 Pi] in general x'[t] == f[x] where f[x] is 2*Pi periodic in all its arguements defines a smooth dynamical system on an n-torus how can i force NDSolve to take the modulo of the dependent states? thanks for the info, +---------------------------------+ | Alan Calvitti | | Control Engineering | | Case Western Reserve University | +---------------------------------+
