The time interval required, after a sudden decrease in input signal amplitude to a system or transducer, to attain a stated percentage (usually 63 percent) of the ultimate change in amplification or attenuation due to this decrease.
The recovery time of a thermistor is the approximate time required for it to cool sufficiently after power is removed and allow it to provide the characteristics required when power is reapplied.
The time taken by a digital camera to process and write an image file to memory, before another shot can be taken.
The amount of time that is necessary for a transient undershoot or overshoot in a stabilized output quantity to decay, usually within a precise limit.
(Limiters) The time designation for the transition from high loss state to low loss state following the secession of high power pulse. This period is defined as the time period from the end of high power pulse to the point where the insertion loss value has returned to within 3 dB of the quiescent loss state.
The amount of time the espresso machine needs to brew again, after the previous shot
Work periods when task demands are light or when rest breaks are scheduled, permitting a person to recover from heavy effort work such as prolonged fixed postures.
The time taken for an element or system to return to its prior state after a perturbation or applied stress. Gouldby and Samuels, 2004, Language of risk – project definitions. FLOODsite Report T34/04/01 on http://www.floodsite.net
In a radar, the time interval between the end of the transmitted pulse and the time when echo signals are no longer attenuated by the tr gap.
The amount of time it takes to process a shipment and have it available for pick up after the flight arrives at the final destination.
In periods of insufficient capacity, jobs back up indefinitely. This leads to increased lead times and missed due dates. Recovery time is a period of time when capacity exceeds demand to allow the system to empty out. If there is not enough recovery time before the next episode of insufficient capacity, in-process inventory and lead times continue to grow.
The time required for the measured characteristic to return to within specified limits following an abnormal event.
Recovery time is the length of rest between exertions. Short work pauses can reduce discomfort. Inadequate rest periods between exertions can decrease performance. As the duration of the uninterrupted work increases, so does the amount of recovery time needed.
After a breath sample has been taken, the time necessary for an instrument to reset and be ready for the next test
Time it takes heart rate to recover to pre-exercise rate.
The time required for an MIS capacitor to reach equilibrium in inversion after being pulsed from accumulation or depletion into deep depletion. The recovery time is directly proportional to the generation lifetime of the MIS device.
The length of time which it takes a transducer to return to normal after applying a proof pressure.
Amount of time an espresso machine may need to recover either the hot water temperature or the proper temperature to produce steam. Recovery time is affected by: 1) adequate boiler size 2) configuration and size of heating element 3) fresh water heat exchangers
The programmable value in rate-modulated pacemakers that determines the minimum time required for a decrease in pacing rate (due to sensor-detected activity) from the programmed maximum rate to the programmed base rate. See also reaction time.
In radar, the time after the transmission of a pulse for the receiver to regain its full sensitivity. Ordinarily the receiver is turned off during pulse transmission to protect it from the strong transmitted signal and is turned back on as soon as the transmitter is turned off. The recovery time is the transient time during which full receiver sensitivity is restored. Because the receiver is not operating at its full sensitivity at times shorter than the recovery time, quantitative reflectivity measurements at close ranges are difficult or impossible. Through the use of fast switches, recovery times may be in the order of a fraction of a microsecond, so that the minimum range for quantitative measurements can be as small as a few tens of meters.
the length of rest between exertions. Inadequate rest periods between exertions can decrease performance. As the duration of the uninterrupted work increases, so does the amount of recovery time needed. Short work pauses can reduce discomfort.
