streamline
Streamlines through a 2D or 3D vector field.
Syntax
Section titled “Syntax”h = streamline(x, y, u, v, sx, sy, ...)Description
Section titled “Description”Traces streamlines (integral curves) of the vector field (u, v) (or (u, v, w) in 3D) starting from seed points (sx, sy). Each streamline follows the vector field until it leaves the domain or completes a cycle.
