CONT

Décrément logarithmique. Il s'agit de mesurer la «vitesse» d'amortissement. Le décrément caractérise, en effet, la décroissance de l'amplitude pendant une période. Soit x(t) l'amplitude à un instant t et x(t+T) l'amplitude à l'instant t+T.

OBS

Le décrément s'écrit: [delta] = ln[x(t)/x(t+T)].
