    <div class="sphx-glr-thumbcontainer" tooltip="This case simulates the motion of a rod that is initially shaped like a butterfly. The rod is released from rest and allowed to deform freely. The goal of the simulation is for sanity check: how does the timestepper reliably preserve total energy of the system, when the system is simple Hamiltonian. The simulation tracks the position and energy of the rod over time.">
