functionregSquare

Anti-symmetric square approximation with non-zero derivative in the origin

Extends from Modelica.Icons.Function (Icon for functions).

Information

This function approximates x^2*sgn(x), such that the derivative is non-zero in x=0.

FunctionApproximationRange
y = regSquare(x)y ~= x^2*sgn(x)abs(x) >>delta
y = regSquare(x)y ~= x*deltaabs(x) << delta

With the default value of delta=0.01, the difference between x^2 and regSquare(x) is 41% around x=0.01, 0.4% around x=0.1 and 0.005% around x=1.
