DPLO
DPLO, freq1, freq2, points, division;
Creates a plot of frequency dependent damping ratios defined by the RDMP command
- The
DPLOcommand must directly be entered after the RDMP command. The curve shows the damping ratio for all frequencies in the specified range. The damping ratios should not be negative (see Simulation Settings). - Damping ratios and frequencies of the RDMP command are marked by a red circle.
Input Data⚓︎
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
freq1 |
Starting frequency → ≥ 0 |
freq2 |
Ending frequency → > freq1 |
points |
Number of data points → ≥ 2 |
division |
Type of the data point spacing → lin - Linear spacing→ log - Logarithmic spacing (default) |
Example:
