  2. Settling time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Settling_time

    Tay, Mareels and Moore (1998) defined settling time as "the time required for the response curve to reach and stay within a range of certain percentage (usually 5% or 2%) of the final value." [ 2 ] Mathematical detail

  3. List of relativistic equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_relativistic_equations

    For two frames at rest, γ = 1, and increases with relative velocity between the two inertial frames. As the relative velocity approaches the speed of light, γ → ∞. Time dilation (different times t and t' at the same position x in same inertial frame) ′ =

  4. Time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_constant

    In physics and engineering, the time constant, usually denoted by the Greek letter τ (tau), is the parameter characterizing the response to a step input of a first-order, linear time-invariant (LTI) system. [1] [note 1] The time constant is the main characteristic unit of a first-order LTI system. It gives speed of the response. In the time ...

  5. Overshoot (signal) - Wikipedia

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

    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. The magnitude of overshoot depends on time through a phenomenon called "damping."

  6. Stokes number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes_number

    = where is the relaxation time of the particle (the time constant in the exponential decay of the particle velocity due to drag), is the fluid velocity of the flow well away from the obstacle, and is the characteristic dimension of the obstacle (typically its diameter) or a characteristic length scale in the flow (like boundary layer thickness ...

  7. Step response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Step_response

    The dependence of settling time upon μ is not obvious, and the approximation of a two-pole system probably is not accurate enough to make any real-world conclusions about feedback dependence of settling time. However, the asymptotes [ 1 − exp(−ρt) ] and [ 1 + exp (−ρt) ] clearly impact settling time, and they are controlled by the time ...

  8. Rise time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rise_time

    Following Levine (1996, p. 158, 2011, 9-3 (313)), we define x% as the percentage low value and y% the percentage high value respect to a reference value of the signal whose rise time is to be estimated. t 1 is the time at which the output of the system under analysis is at the x% of the steady-state value, while t 2 the one at which it is at ...

  9. Lorentz factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorentz_factor

    The Lorentz factor γ is defined as [3] = = = = =, where: . v is the relative velocity between inertial reference frames,; c is the speed of light in vacuum,; β is the ratio of v to c,; t is coordinate time,
