How to calculate slope of XY curve?

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi all,

 

I want to calculate the slope of a X-Y curve, for example, amplitude v.s. position. I was trying to use the derivative method but failed. Could anyone help me with this problem? The example vi. is attached.

 

 

 

Regards,

Nicky.

Dang it, too slow...

 

Try the Linear Fit VI

Although it involves a Rube method as compared to Linear Fit, the attached vi teaches what a slope really is.

Can you post the same solved example with labview 8.2?

Hey

Attached is the Vi.

Could you please help me if I want to find the slope and I want to stop the loop and measurement when the maximum slope has been attained.

Help will be very much appreciated.

How are you defining "maximum slope".  Is it a simple threadhold (stop when slope >= a set value) or are you looking for the inflection point (calculating on the fly the maximum slope and stopping when it is reached)?  The threshold is a simple comparison.

No it is infection point, as in after getting the measurement value , finding the slope and stopping when the slope is highest as in it has maximum deviation from the previous value.

You should be having a Max limit value so that you can compare on the fly and stop if the max slope is achieved. Check the attached example and also keep it in a single thread

Good luck
