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:

    Nor could I rise with you,
    Because your face
    Would put out Jesus’,
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    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)

    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)
