Syntax
duration(time_vector, response_vector, mode, [debug])
Arguments
- time_vector
- Time vector of data to analyze (seconds)
- response_vector
- The dependent vector of data to analyze.
- mode
- mode = 0; Return X axis values.
- [debug]
- Flag to turn on debug mode (prints to Message Log), optional (default = off).
Example

Comments
The load duration criterion is a method for assessing the occupant’s injury based on the magnitude and duration of the load. The data is processed to create a load vs. duration plot.
