Crackle (physics)
Crackle is the facetious name of a high-order derivative, and more specifically, the fifth derivative of the displacement.[1] There is little consensus on what to call derivatives past the 4th derivative, jounce, due to there being few well-defined practical applications. The terms are, however, utilized within the fields of robotics and human motion.[2]
Notation
Crackle is given by the notation:
meaning crackle is equal to the 5th-order derivative of position vector over time, equal to the vector s.
The following equations are used for constant crackle:
where
- : constant crackle,
- : initial jounce,
- : final jounce,
- : initial jerk,
- : final jerk,
- : initial acceleration,
- : final acceleration,
- : initial velocity,
- : final velocity,
- : initial position,
- : final position,
- : time between initial and final states.
