Damped Sinusoid
The Damped Sinusoid waveform has zero amplitude at time
zero. The amplitude increases sinusoidally starting at time zero, but
decreases in amplitude with each successive cycle. The rate at which the
waveform amplitude decreases is determined by the value in the Damping text box.
The Damped Sinusoid waveform is defined over a set time
interval defined by the value in the Period text
box. The waveform can be defined as a series of pulses by specifying Pulses Per Period to be greater than 1, and Repetition Rate to be less than Period. The
time-domain waveform is displayed in the upper graph of the form.
The equation for the Damped Sinusoid is:
where
Y(t) = Waveform amplitude at time t
Y1 = Peak Amplitude
w = angular
frequency = 2pf
f = Sine Wave Frequency
k = Inflection constant
