The refuge relay function generator

Published: 01 January 1956 Publication History

Abstract

The method of approximating an arbitrary function of one variable by a sequence of straight-line segments of suitable slopes is widely used to provide input functions for analogue computations. However, many of the mechanizations of this process are critical in adjustment, and require relatively highly trained personnel to expend considerable time in setting them up.
The relay function generator here described was developed in an effort to arrive at a simple, reliable device which would accomplish this same purpose, and which could be set up in a purely routine manner by personnel without special training.
