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:

    “In a hierarchy every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence.”
    —Laurence J. Peter (1919–1990)

    “So we may never
    Again feel fully confident of the stratagem that bore us
    And lived on a certain time after that. And it went away
    Little by little, as most things do. To profit
    By this mainstream is today’s chore and adventure.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “America is neither free nor brave, but a land of tight, iron- clanking little wills, everybody trying to put it over everybody else, and a land of men absolutely devoid of the real courage of trust, trust in life’s sacred spontaneity. They can’t trust life until they can control it.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
