Linear

The Linear time series represents a linearly varying function with time, defined by a scale factor.

Parameters:

Parameter	Description	Type
factor	Scale factor for the linear function (default: 1.0)	float

The linear time series creates a function that increases linearly with time, multiplied by the factor parameter.

Example

# Direct creation
from femora.components.TimeSeries.timeSeriesBase import TimeSeriesManager

ts_manager = TimeSeriesManager()

# Create a linear time series with factor 2.0
linear_ts = ts_manager.create_time_series(
    'Linear',
    factor=2.0
)

# Via Femora
import femora as fm


linear_ts = fm.timeSeries.create_time_series(
    'Linear',
    factor=1.5
)

Mathematical Representation

The linear time series is defined by the formula:

f(t) = factor × t

where t is the time.
