Energy-Preserving Parameter Changes (Mass-Spring Oscillator)
If the change in or is deemed to be ``internal'', that is, involving no external interactions, the appropriate accompanying change in the internal state variables is that which conserves energy. For the mass and its velocity, for example, we must have
If the spring constant is to change from to , the instantaneous spring displacement must satisfy
