Power

class hoomd.variant.Power(A, B, power, t_start, t_ramp)

Bases: Variant

An approach from initial to final value following t**power.

Parameters:

  • A (float) – The start value.

  • B (float) – The end value.

  • power (float) – The power of the approach to B.

  • t_start (int) – The start time step.

  • t_ramp (int) – The length of the ramp.

Power holds the value A until time t_start. Then it progresses at \(t^{\mathrm{power}}\) from A to B over t_ramp steps and holds the value B after that.

Example:

variant = hoomd.variant.Power(
    A=2, B=8, power=1 / 10, t_start=10, t_ramp=20
