Loci of constant math 20 log 10 M s math and math arg M s math are overlaid to allow the designer to obtain the closed loop transfer function directly from the open loop transfer function. Thus, the frequency math omega math is the parameter along the curve. This plot may be compared to the Bode plot in which the two inter related graphs math 20 log 10 G s math versus math log 10 omega math and math arg G s math versus math log 10 omega math are plotted. Note that the decibel convention shown above, math 20 log 10 math is not unique another convention sometimes used is math 10 log 10 math . In control system feedback control design , the plot is useful for assessing the stability and robustness of a linear system. This application of the Nichols plot is central to the Quantitative feedback theory QFT of Horowitz and Sidi, which is a well known method for robust control system design. In most cases, math arg G s math refers to the phase of the system s response. Although similar to a Nyquist plot , a Nichols plot is plotted in a Cartesian coordinate system while a Nyquist plot is plotted in a polar coordinate system .

Image LogisticCobwebChaos.gif thumb 500px right An animated cobweb diagram of the logistic map , showing chaos theory chaotic behaviour for most values of r 3.57. A cobweb plot , or Verhulst diagram is a visual tool used in the dynamical system s field of mathematics to investigate the qualitative behaviour of one dimensional iterated function s, such as the logistic map . Using a cobweb plot, it is possible to infer the long term status of an initial condition under repeated application of a map. Method For a given iterated function f R R , the plot consists of a diagonal x y line and a curve representing y f x . To plot the behaviour of a value math x 0 math , apply the following steps. Find the point on the function curve with an x coordinate of math x 0 math . This has the coordinates math x 0, f x 0 math . Plot horizontally across from this point to the diagonal line. This has the coordinates math f x 0 , f x 0 math . Plot vertically from the point on the diagonal to the function curve. This has the coordinates math f x 0 , f f x 0 math . Repeat from step 2 as required. Interpretation On the cobweb plot, a stable fixed point mathematics fixed point corresponds to an inward spiral, while an unstable fixed point is an outward one. It follows from the definition of a fixed point that these spirals will center at a point where the diagonal y x line crosses the function graph. A period 2 Orbit dynamics orbit is represented by a rectangle, while greater period cycles produce further, more complex closed loops. A chaos theory chaotic orbit would show a filled out area, indicating an infinite number of non repeating values.

Image Nyquist.svg thumb right A Nyquist plot. A Nyquist plot is a parametric plot of a transfer function used in control systems automatic control and signal processing . The most common use of Nyquist plots is for assessing the stability of a system with feedback . In Cartesian coordinates, the real part of the transfer function is plotted on the X axis. The imaginary part is plotted on the Y axis. The frequency is swept as a parameter. Alternatively, in polar coordinates , the gain of the transfer function is plotted as the radial coordinate, while the phase waves phase of the transfer function is plotted as the angular coordinate. The Nyquist plot is named after Harry Nyquist , a former engineer at Bell Laboratories . Uses Assessment of the stability of a closed loop negative feedback system is done by applying the Nyquist stability criterion to the Nyquist plot of the open loop system i.e. the same system without its feedback loop . This method is easily applicable even for systems with delays and other non rational transfer functions, which may appear difficult to analyze by means of other methods. Stability is determined by looking at the number of encirclements of the point at 1,0 . Range of gains over which the system will be stable can be determined by looking at crossing of the real axis. The Nyquist plot can provide some information about the shape of the transfer function. For instance, the plot provides information on the difference between the number of pole complex analysis pole s and zero complex analysis zero s of the transfer function ref http www.facstaff.bucknell.edu mastascu econtrolhtml Freq Freq6.html Nyquist Plots ref by the angle at which the curve approaches the origin.

Unreferenced date November 2008 A hydrophilicity plot is a Quantitative analysis chemistry quantitative analysis of the degree of hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity of amino acid s of a protein . It is used to characterize or identify possible structure or domains of a protein. The plot has amino acid sequence of a protein on its x axis , and degree of hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity on its y axis . There are a number of methods to measure the degree of interaction of polar solvent s such as water with specific amino acids. For instance, the Kyte Doolittle scale indicates hydrophobic amino acids, while the Hopp Woods scale measures hydrophilic residues. Analyzing the shape of the plot gives information about partial structure of the protein. For instance, if a stretch of about 20 amino acids shows positive for hydrophobicity, then this indicates that these amino acids may be part of alpha helix spanning across a lipid bilayer , which is composed of hydrophobic fatty acids. Conversely, amino acids with high hydrophilicity indicate that these residues are in contact with solvent, or water, and that they are therefore likely to reside on the outer surface of the protein.
