HS.solution {mkin}

Hockey-Stick kinetics

Description

Function describing two exponential decline functions with a break point between them.

Usage

HS.solution(t, parent_0, k1, k2, tb)

Arguments

t

Time.

parent_0

Starting value for the response variable at time zero.

k1

First kinetic constant.

k2

Second kinetic constant.

tb

Break point. Before this time, exponential decline according to k1 is calculated, after this time, exponential decline proceeds according to k2.

Value

The value of the response variable at time t.
