  2. Damping factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping_factor

    At around 4 kHz, the real-life difference between an amplifier with a moderate (100) damping factor and one with a low (20) damping factor is about 0.37 dB. However, the amplifier with the low damping factor is acting more like a subtle graphic equaliser than is the amplifier with the moderate damping factor, where the peaks and dips in the ...

  3. Thiele/Small parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thiele/Small_parameters

    A unitless measurement, characterizing the combined electric and mechanical damping of the driver. In electronics, Q {\displaystyle Q} is the inverse of the damping ratio. The value of Q t s {\displaystyle Q_{\rm {ts}}} is proportional to the energy stored, divided by the energy dissipated, and is defined at resonance ( f s {\displaystyle f ...

  4. Shock response spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_response_spectrum

    Different damping ratios produce different SRSs for the same shock waveform. Zero damping will produce a maximum response. Very high damping produces a very boring SRS: A horizontal line. The level of damping is demonstrated by the "quality factor", Q which can also be thought of transmissibility in sinusoidal vibration case.

  5. Electrical characteristics of dynamic loudspeakers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_characteristics...

    The amplifier damping factor, which is the ratio of the nominal load impedance (driver voice coil) to amplifier output impedance, is adequate in either case for well-designed solid state amplifiers. Tube amplifiers have sufficiently higher output impedances that they normally included multi-tap output transformers to better match to the driver ...

  6. Logarithmic decrement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_decrement

    The logarithmic decrement can be obtained e.g. as ln(x 1 /x 3).Logarithmic decrement, , is used to find the damping ratio of an underdamped system in the time domain.. The method of logarithmic decrement becomes less and less precise as the damping ratio increases past about 0.5; it does not apply at all for a damping ratio greater than 1.0 because the system is overdamped.

  7. RLC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RLC_circuit

    In the filtering application, the resistor becomes the load that the filter is working into. The value of the damping factor is chosen based on the desired bandwidth of the filter. For a wider bandwidth, a larger value of the damping factor is required (and vice versa). The three components give the designer three degrees of freedom.

  8. Settling time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Settling_time

    The settling time for a second order, underdamped system responding to a step response can be approximated if the damping ratio by = ⁡ () A general form is T s = − ln ⁡ ( tolerance fraction × 1 − ζ 2 ) damping ratio × natural freq {\displaystyle T_{s}=-{\frac {\ln({\text{tolerance fraction}}\times {\sqrt {1-\zeta ^{2}}})}{{\text ...

  9. Q factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_factor

    The Q factor is a parameter that describes the resonance behavior of an underdamped harmonic oscillator (resonator). Sinusoidally driven resonators having higher Q factors resonate with greater amplitudes (at the resonant frequency) but have a smaller range of frequencies around that frequency for which they resonate; the range of frequencies for which the oscillator resonates is called the ...
