Local Trajectory Variation Exponent (LTVE) for Visualizing Dynamical Systems (2401.09222v1)

Published 17 Jan 2024 in math.DS and physics.flu-dyn

Abstract: The identification and visualization of Lagrangian structures in flows plays a crucial role in the study of dynamic systems and fluid dynamics. The Finite Time Lyapunov Exponent (FTLE) has been widely used for this purpose; however, it only approximates the flow by considering the positions of particles at the initial and final times, ignoring the actual trajectory of the particle. To overcome this limitation, we propose a novel quantity that extends and generalizes the FTLE by incorporating trajectory metrics as a measure of similarity between trajectories. Our proposed method utilizes trajectory metrics to quantify the distance between trajectories, providing a more robust and accurate measure of the LCS. By incorporating trajectory metrics, we can capture the actual path of the particle and account for its behavior over time, resulting in a more comprehensive analysis of the flow. Our approach extends the traditional FTLE approach to include trajectory metrics as a means of capturing the complexity of the flow.
