Dead zone

Suppresses values inside a dead zone and subtracts the nearest edge outside it.

Behavior

y = u − lower below lower; u − upper above upper; otherwise 0. The worked example connects this operation to signals in Lemonergy Studio.

Connected concepts

Limits and interpretation

  • Shapes and element types are explicit. Values must be finite; automatic reshaping and unit conversion are not performed.

Reference basis

This software operation and its numerical conventions are defined by the public contract and worked example; no external research result is claimed.

Implementation sources

This reference follows the public interface and locally verified numerical checks for an upcoming release.
