How To Define A Sine Source

Use the Define Source dialog to edit a source device. Click on the Sine tab.

The following dialog will be displayed:

The shape of the waveform is described by:

0 to delay:�����������������offset

Delay to stop time:����offset + peak.exp(-(t-delay).theta)).sin(2.p.freq.(t+delay))

Notes:

Phase is implemented using a negative delay. If a positive delay is specified, the phase control will blank out.

Frequency is defined in Hz. If set to zero, the frequency will be set to 1 / (stop_time squared). Where stop_time refers to the end time of the Transient Analysis.

Delay is defined in seconds.

Theta is the damping factor parameter which controls decay, defined in tenths of a second.
