This explorable illustrates some interesting and beautiful properties of oscillators that are spatially arranged on a lattice and interact with their neighbors by phase coupling. It's the Kuramoto Model on a square lattice.
The explorable is part of the Complexity Exporables Collection. For more information about the system and its behavior consult the explorable
Out of the box you can use the explorable in a basic index.html
file like this
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,initial-scale=1">
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@explorables/spinwheels"></script>
</head>
<body class="avenir pa3 pa5-ns tj">
<div id="explorable_container"></div>
</body>
<script type="text/javascript">
spinwheels.load("explorable_container")
</script>
</html>
The header <script>
tag loads the bundle, the <div>
in the document is the container in which the explorable gets anchored when the function spinwheels.load()
gets executed at the bottom. The load
function needs the <div>
container id
as an argument.
Clone repository:
git clone https://github.com/dirkbrockmann/spinwheels.git
Go to the directory, install, build and show using npm
