Filters and Damping

[sol72us]

There is knowledge of filter
system theory that is described
by damping. It is described as
a step function input, and look
at the output. If the output
is a clean step, than the
filter system is critically
damped. If the output rings
and takes forever to stabilize,
then it is under damped.
If the output just takes
forever to come up to the new
step level without ringing,
it is over damped.

This knowledge is metaphoric
for people. People act like
filtered systems.
The wisdoms shared in this
group are conducive to becoming
critically damped. Your damping
is tested by means of subjecting
yourself to "step" changes, and
carefully observing your response.
It's related to Ra's encouragement
of growing accustomed to change.

Notice this damping phenomena
in yourself and others, it
is a common principle of
filtered systems in nature.

that's a really interesting thought/analogy...i'm going to have to
look back at my textbooks and look at filter theory
and damping in a new context...thanks...
