MatCont is a Matlab software project for the numerical continuation and bifurcation study of continuous and discrete parameterized dynamical systems. Leaders of the project are Willy Govaerts (Gent,B) and Yuri A. Kuznetsov (Utrecht,NL) and Hil G.E. Meijer (UT, Enschede, NL).

Matcont for ODEs and MatcontM for Maps

Publishing a paper using our software? That's great. Please do us a favour and cite:
New features of the software MatCont for bifurcation analysis of dynamical systems. A. Dhooge, and W. Govaerts, Yu.A. Kuznetsov, H.G.E. Meijer and B. Sautois, MCMDS 2008, Vol. 14, No. 2, pp 147-175

In case you're stuck, use the forum, but to get a good answer provide:
1. What command do you give when this appears? Provide the exact steps. Stating "no convergence" is not enough.
2. Most procedures are explained in the Tutorials. There is a manual with detailed descriptions of the data.

Features

  • Bifurcation Analysis
  • Numerical Continuation
  • Vector Fields and Maps
  • Normal Forms
  • Periodic and Homoclinic Orbits

User Reviews

  • I used MatCont for my nonlinear dynamics coursework, and it helped me visualize bifurcation diagrams effectively. The step-by-step setup for continuation problems is intuitive for learning, which is a big plus for students. On the downside, the program often freezes during extended computations, and error messages are vague, making troubleshooting frustrating. It’s a good introductory tool, but for more intensive work, a more reliable and faster solution would be better.
  • nice,it's very good!
  • Very well crafted software
  • Excellent and unique in its topicality worldwide
  • Thank You for this, now, epic application!
