Toda Oscillator - Period of Pulsation

Period of Pulsation

The period of pulsation is increasing function of the amplitude .

At, the period ~T(\gamma)=2\pi \left( 1 + \frac{\gamma^2} {24} + O(\gamma^4) \right) ~

At, the period ~T(\gamma)= 4\gamma^{1/2} \left(1+O(1/\gamma)\right) ~

In the whole range, the period and the frequency can be approximated with

k_\text{fit}(\gamma)= \frac{2\pi} {T_\text{fit}(\gamma)}=
\left( \frac { 10630 + 674\gamma + 695.2419\gamma^2 + 191.4489\gamma^3 + 16.86221\gamma^4 + 4.082607\gamma^5 + \gamma^6 } {10630 + 674\gamma + 2467\gamma^2 + 303.2428 \gamma^3+164.6842\gamma^4 + 36.6434\gamma^5 + 3.9596\gamma^6 + 0.8983\gamma^7 +\frac{16}{\pi^4} \gamma^8} \right)^{1/4}

with at least 8 significant figures. The relative error of this approximation does not exceed .

Famous quotes containing the words period of, period and/or pulsation:

    “There’s always a period of curious fear between the first sweet-smelling breeze and the time when the rain comes cracking down.”
    —Don Delillo (b. 1926)

    “Unless your baby becomes uncomfortable and tries to push away, don’t worry that you’re cuddling too much. That way, when she reaches adolescence and goes through a normal period of being terribly embarrassed even to be seen with you in public, you’ll have some memories to tide you over until she comes around again.”
    —Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    “We are independent of the change we detect. The longer the lever, the less perceptible its motion. It is the slowest pulsation which is the most vital. The hero then will know how to wait, as well as to make haste. All good abides with him who waiteth wisely; we shall sooner overtake the dawn by remaining here than by hurrying over the hills of the west.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
