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:

    I have a toothache today. I never seem to be able to rise above a toothache. It makes me want to howl, break things, pull noses, tweak ears, screech.
    John Colton (1886–1946)

    Time is a very bankrupt and owes more than he’s worth to
    season.
    Nay, he’s a thief too: have you not heard men say,
    That Time comes stealing on by night and day?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I am the center of the world, but the control panel seems to be somewhere else.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
