  2. Backward induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backward_induction

    The pressure or presence of other players and external implications can mean that the game's formal model cannot necessarily predict what a real person will choose. According to Colin Camerer, an American behavioral economist, Player 2 "rejects offers of less than 20 percent of X about half the time, even though they end up with nothing." [12]

  3. Overshoot (signal) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overshoot_(signal)

    When they are lower than the final value, the phenomenon is called "undershoot". A circuit is designed to minimize rise time while containing distortion of the signal within acceptable limits. Overshoot represents a distortion of the signal. In circuit design, the goals of minimizing overshoot and of decreasing circuit rise time can conflict.

  4. Damping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping

    For a step input, the percentage overshoot (PO) is the maximum value minus the step value divided by the step value. In the case of the unit step, the overshoot is just the maximum value of the step response minus one. The percentage overshoot (PO) is related to damping ratio (ζ) by:

  5. Step response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Step_response

    This closed-loop gain is of the same form as the open-loop gain: a one-pole filter. Its step response is of the same form: an exponential decay toward the new equilibrium value. But the time constant of the closed-loop step function is τ / (1 + β A 0), so it is faster than the forward amplifier's response by a factor of 1 + β A 0:

  6. Time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_constant

    In an increasing system, the time constant is the time for the system's step response to reach 1 − 1 / e ≈ 63.2% of its final (asymptotic) value (say from a step increase). In radioactive decay the time constant is related to the decay constant ( λ ), and it represents both the mean lifetime of a decaying system (such as an atom) before it ...

  7. Duty cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duty_cycle

    Similarly, for pulse (10001000) the duty cycle will be 25% because the pulse remains high only for 1/4 of the period and remains low for 3/4 of the period. Electrical motors typically use less than a 100% duty cycle. For example, if a motor runs for one out of 100 seconds, or 1/100 of the time, then, its duty cycle is 1/100, or 1 percent. [10]

  8. Rise time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rise_time

    For applications in control theory, according to Levine (1996, p. 158), rise time is defined as "the time required for the response to rise from x% to y% of its final value", with 0% to 100% rise time common for underdamped second order systems, 5% to 95% for critically damped and 10% to 90% for overdamped ones.

  9. Rate-determining step - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate-determining_step

    The statement that the first step is the slow step actually means that the first step in the reverse direction is slower than the second step in the forward direction, so that almost all NO 3 is consumed by reaction with CO and not with NO. That is, r −1 ≪ r 2, so that r 1 − r 2 ≈ 0.
