CriticalTransitions.jl

A Julia package for the numerical investigation of noise- and rate-induced transitions in dynamical systems.

Building on DynamicalSystems.jl and DifferentialEquations.jl, this package aims to provide a toolbox for dynamical systems under time-dependent forcing, with a focus on tipping phenomena and metastability.

Usage

See package documentation.

Example: Bistable FitzHugh-Nagumo model

using CriticalTransitions

# System parameters
p = [1., 3., 1., 1., 1., 0.]
noise_strength = 0.02

# Define stochastic system
sys = StochSystem(fitzhugh_nagumo, p, zeros(2), noise_strength)

# Get stable fixed points
fps, eigs, stab = fixedpoints(sys, [-2,-2], [2,2])
fp1, fp2 = fps[stab]

# Generate noise-induced transition from one fixed point to the other
path, times, success = transition(sys, fp1, fp2)

# ... and more, check out the documentation!
