Rise Time - Rise Time in Control Applications

Rise Time in Control Applications

In control theory, for overdamped systems, rise time is commonly defined as the time for a waveform to go from 10% to 90% of its final value.

The quadratic approximation for normalized rise time for a 2nd-order system, step response, no zeros is:

where ζ is the damping ratio and ω0 is the natural frequency of the network.

However, the proper calculation for rise time from 0 to 100% of an under-damped 2nd-order system is:

where ζ is the damping ratio and ω0 is the natural frequency of the network.

Famous quotes containing the words rise, time and/or control:

    And now you try
    Your handful of notes;
    The clear vowels rise like balloons.
    Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

    Benjamin: Do you think I’m proud of myself? Do you think I’m proud of this?
    Mrs. Robinson: I wouldn’t know.
    Benjamin: Well, I’m not.
    Mrs. Robinson: You’re not?
    Benjamin: No, sir. I’m not proud that I spend my time with a broken-down alcoholic.
    Calder Willingham (1923–1995)

    Grown-up people do very little and say a great deal.... Toddlers say very little and do a great deal.... With a toddler you cannot explain, you have to show. You cannot send, you have to take. You cannot control with words, you have to use your body.
    Penelope Leach (20th century)
