# godesim

Simulate complex systems with a simple API.
---

Wrangle non-linear differential equations while writing maintainable, simple code.

Note: [gonum/exp](https://github.com/gonum/exp) is still in early development but offers a more flexible and lightweight alternative to `godesim`'s full fledged simulator.

## Why Godesim?

ODE solvers seem to fill the niche of simple system solvers in
your numerical packages such as scipy's odeint/solve_ivp.

Among these integrators there seems to be room for a solver that offers simulation interactivity such as modifying
the differential equations during simulation based on events such as a rocket stage separation.

## Installation

Requires Go.

```console
go get github.com/soypat/godesim
```

## Progress

Godesim is in early development and will naturally change as it is used more.
The chart below shows some features that are planned or already part of godesim.

## [Examples](./_examples)

### Quadratic Solution

```go
// Declare your rate-of-change functions using state-space symbols
Dtheta := func(s state.State) float64 {
return s.X("theta-dot")
}

DDtheta := func(s state.State) float64 {
return 1
}
// Set the Simulation's differential equations and initial values and hit Begin!
sim := godesim.New() // Configurable with Simulation.SetConfig(godesim.Config{...})
sim.SetDiffFromMap(map[state.Symbol]state.Diff {
"theta": Dtheta,
"theta-dot": DDtheta,
})
sim.SetX0FromMap(map[state.Symbol]float64{
"theta": 0,
"theta-dot": 0,
})
sim.SetTimespan(0.0, 1.0, 10) // One second simulated
sim.Begin()
```

The above code solves the following system:

for the domain `t=0` to `t=1.0` in 10 steps where `theta` and `theta-dot` are the `X` variables. The resulting curve is quadratic as the solution for this equation (for theta and theta-dot equal to zero) is

### How to obtain results
```go
// one can then obtain simulation results as float slices
t := sim.Results("time")
theta := sim.Results("theta")
```

### Other examples

To run an example, navigate to it's directory (under [`examples`](./_examples)) then type `go run .` in console.

There are three simple examples which have been cooked up and left in `_examples` directory.
I've been having problems running Pixel on my machine so the simulation animations are still under work.

* [Simple pendulum](./_examples/simplePendulum)
* [Double pendulum exhibiting chaotic motion](./_examples/doublePendulum)
* [N-Body simulation](./_examples/n-body)

### Final notes
Future versions of gonum will have an ODE solver too. Ideally godesim would base it's algorithms on `gonum`'s implementation. See https://github.com/gonum/exp `ode` package.
