WHAT DOES ISOCLINAL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Isocline

An isocline is a curve through points at which the parent function's slope will always be the same, regardless of initial conditions. The word comes from the Greek words Isos meaning "same" and Klisi meaning "slope". It is often used as a graphical method of solving ordinary differential equations. In an equation of the form y' = f, the isoclines are lines in the plane obtained by setting f equal to a constant. This gives a series of lines along which the solution curves have the same gradient. By calculating this gradient for each isocline, the slope field can be visualised; making it relatively easy to sketch approximate solution curves; as in fig. 1. In population dynamics refers to the set of population sizes at which the rate of change, or partial derivative, for one population in a pair of interacting populations is zero.
