Transition 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:

    “Only the person who has experienced light and darkness, war and peace, rise and fall, only that person has truly experienced life.”
    —Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    “In this country it is a good thing to kill an admiral from time to time to encourage the others.”
    —Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)

    “We human beings do have some genuine freedom of choice and therefore some effective control over our own destinies. I am not a determinist. But I also believe that the decisive choice is seldom the latest choice in the series. More often than not, it will turn out to be some choice made relatively far back in the past.”
    —A.J. (Arnold Joseph)
