Ecology models and Newton vector fields
Mathematical and Computer Modelling, 1988 The paper deals with the visual examination of the global behaviour of solutions to autonomous systems of differential equations. A simple method to do this is to integrate numerically in forward time and then to draw the phase portraits and the Poincaré sections of the corresponding flows by computer.
