The flow source has its causality stroke at the source.
Potential variables: e: Bondgraphic effort variable f: Bondgraphic flow variable, normalized positive for flows out of the model Parameters: f0: Height of step response after infinite time (default value = 1) riseTime: Rise time of step response to be generated (default value = 0.5) riseTimeConst: Rise time constant of step response to be generated (default value = 0.1) fallTimeConst: Fall time constant of step response to be generated (default value = riseTimeConst) offset: Offset of step response to be generated (default value = 0) startTime: Start time of step response to be generated (default value = 0)
Equations:
f_riseTime = f0*(1 - exp(-riseTime/riseTimeConst))
f = offset + (if (time < startTime) then 0 else if (time < (startTime
+ riseTime)) then f0*(1 - exp(-(time - startTime)/riseTimeConst)) else
f_riseTime*exp(-(time - startTime - riseTime)/fallTimeConst));
