  • Abstract
    This communication provides a graphical technique for the construction of the equation \\ddot{x} + \\phi (dot{x})g(x) + \\psi (dot{x})h(x) = 0 . This technique can be carried out with, at most, two triangles and a compass and is suited to the construction of phase plane trajectories of nonlinear second-order differential equations.
