Stability Analysis for Landing Gear Shimmy

Hello,
I am trying to generate stability maps on the k-v plane for a vibration analysis. I wrote the following command to find the roots. But I don't know how to extract the graph. Can you help me? I am attaching a chart as an example. Thanks.
Iz=0.5;
c=4;
Fz=7500;
e=0.037;
cfa=3.692;
cma=-0.116;
Kappa=-7;
a=0.041;
sigmaa=0.123;
for ind=1:6
V=5*ind;
b1=(V^2)*sigmaa;
b2=(V^3)*Iz-Fz*cma*e*V*sigmaa+2*Kappa*V*sigmaa-sigmaa^2*c*V+Fz*cma*a*V*sigmaa-Fz*e*cfa*a*V*sigmaa+Fz*(e^2)*cfa*V*sigmaa;
b3=(V^2)*(Iz*sigmaa*Fz*cma-Iz*e*Fz*cma+Kappa*Iz-Iz*sigmaa*Fz*e*cfa+Fz*cma*a*Iz-Fz*e*cfa*a*Iz+Fz*(e^2)*cfa*Iz)+Fz*cma*a*sigmaa*Kappa-Fz*e*cfa*a*sigmaa*Kappa+sigmaa*Kappa^2-c*Kappa*sigmaa^2-Fz*cma*e*sigmaa*Kappa+Fz*cfa*sigmaa*Kappa*e^2;
kokler=roots([b1 b2 b3])
end

You did not answer any questions in my comment and, for some strange reason, you posted this, which should have been a response to my comment, as an answer to your own question. Thanks to Image Analyst for correcting that.
Matlab Answers is forum where generous volunteers answer specific questions for people that are having specific problems with aspects of Matlab programming. It is not a homework solving service.
If you really want to learn how to use Matlab, I suggest that you take a couple of hours to go through the free online tutorial: Matlab Onramp.
If you want further help with this specific issue, then answer the questions that I asked in my original comment (as a response to this comment, not as another answer that isn't actually an answer).
