SmoothZeroTransmission

Created Mittwoch 16 September 2015

Ensure a smooth transition from y(x<0) to y(x>0) with linear behaviour around x=0

1. Purpose of Function

When two paths of an if-else correlation shall be connected to each other smoothly then the SmoothZeroTransmission is a appropriate option.

2. Limits of Validity


3. Interfaces

4. Nomenclature

5. Governing Equations

The function uses ClaRa's function Stepsmoother to create the desired smooth behaviour of the following discontinuous equation:

This is achieved by twice applying the Stepsmoother, i.e.

which results in the following behaviour:
