1I'm afraid that's a bit too general for stackoverflow. Google it, you'll get plenty of hits. Maybe this is a starting point: http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/uploadfile/TheButler/the-basics-of-drawing-graphics-onto-windows-forms/ – bas Feb 03 '13 at 21:24

The question is a bit too general, but just to shed some light, I think you probably want to create a PictureBox control and draw on that, instead of on the actual form that has your controls and settings.
Here's how you create the Graphics object for a pictureBox, for example, and then draw a line on it: Draw a line on PictureBox from parent
Now, your simulation, I believe, should actually draw lines, between the newly calculated (x,y) and the previously calculated one, in order to plot a full line instead of just dots, and that will probably happen within a loop in which you vary t (time) in intervals.
