Results Of The Poincaire Plots

If the plane of the table is spanned by the x and y axis , then to obtain the Poincare plot , all one has to do is to plot the point (x,Vx)at each instant that the ball passes the line y=0. Non-chaotic dynamics is indicated in this plot by nice well defined structures.
