The integration method is applied to the analysis of nuclear reactor systems. For second order systems this method is the same and even better than the isocline method; for third order systems, it offers some advantages in finding the characteristics of trajectories in state-space. Since stability as well as transient response characteristics can be realized directly from trajectories, the integration method is useful for system analysis.
