How to interactively animate a t,s diagram with lines with traveling knots? /u/Repulsive-Lobster750 Python Education

I’m concocting a python app, that lets you calculate the power, steam consumption, efficiency of a reciprocating steam engine power plant. It later will get the data from sensors from my actual steam engine.

I want to animate a knotted line, whose knots are wandering along the line, preferably, the knots have a brighter color, than the base line. The line is curved, which complicates things. The knots are supposed to be thickenings of the line. The line will display actual system attributes and thus will not be something static/unchangable. Otherwise, I could have just animate a picture.

How would I go about the display of a line with wandering knots/nodes in a graph? Any ideas?
