  2. Time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_constant

    First order LTI systems are characterized by the differential equation + = where τ represents the exponential decay constant and V is a function of time t = (). The right-hand side is the forcing function f(t) describing an external driving function of time, which can be regarded as the system input, to which V(t) is the response, or system output.

  3. RC time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_time_constant

    The RC time constant, denoted τ (lowercase tau), the time constant (in seconds) of a resistor–capacitor circuit (RC circuit), is equal to the product of the circuit resistance (in ohms) and the circuit capacitance (in farads):

  4. Plateau principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plateau_Principle

    Although these equations were derived to assist with predicting the time course of drug action, [1] the same equation can be used for any substance or quantity that is being produced at a measurable rate and degraded with first-order kinetics. Because the equation applies in many instances of mass balance, it has very broad applicability in ...

  5. Forcing function (differential equations) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forcing_function...

    In a system of differential equations used to describe a time-dependent process, a forcing function is a function that appears in the equations and is only a function of time, and not of any of the other variables. [1] [2] In effect, it is a constant for each value of t.

  6. General time- and transfer constant analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_time-_and_transfer...

    The second order time constant, , is simply the time constant associated with the reactive element (where subscript always denotes the index of the element in question), when element is infinite valued. In this notation, the superscript always denotes the index of the element (or elements) being infinite valued, with superscript zero implying ...

  7. Andrea Amati - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrea_Amati

    Andrea Amati (ca. 1505 - 1577, Cremona) was a luthier, from Cremona, Italy. [1] [2] Amati is credited with making the first instruments of the violin family that are in the form we use today. [3] Several of his instruments survive to the present day, and some of them can still be played.

  8. Master equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_equation

    A master equation is a phenomenological set of first-order differential equations describing the time evolution of (usually) the probability of a system to occupy each one of a discrete set of states with regard to a continuous time variable t.

  9. Gauss–Markov process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss–Markov_process

    A stationary Gauss–Markov process with variance (()) = and time constant has the following properties.. Exponential autocorrelation: () = | |.; A power spectral density (PSD) function that has the same shape as the Cauchy distribution: () = +. (Note that the Cauchy distribution and this spectrum differ by scale factors.)
