Constant Rate Segment
Author
rossetti
Parameters
represents the cumulative rate at the beginning of the segment, must be >=0
represents the time at the beginning of the segment, must be >=0
represents the time duration of the segment, must be >=0
represents the rate for the time segment, must be 0 < rate <= infinity
Properties
the width of the interval on the cumulative rate scale (crWidth = crUL - crLL)
the lower limit of the interval on cumulative rate scale
the upper limit of the interval on the cumulative rate scale
the rate for the interval
The rate at the upper time limit is undefined Double.NaN. The rate for the segment is constant throughout the interval but undefined at the end of the interval
the lower limit of the interval on the timescale
the upper limit of the interval on the timescale
the width of the interval on the timescale (tWidth = tUL - tLL)
Functions
Returns the value of the cumulative rate function for the interval given a value of time within that interval
Returns a new instance of the rate segment
Returns the inverse of the cumulative rate function given the interval and a cumulative rate value within that interval. Returns a time
