3) Critically damped: [math]x(t) = (A + Bt)e^{- \gamma t}[/math] This is the optimally damped case, where the damping coefficient is just large enough to completely quell the oscillations, so the oscillator returns to zero in the least amount of time possible. 4) Overdamped: [math]x(t) = Ae^{- \gamma_{1}t} + Be^{- \gamma_{2}t}[/math]
Damper. 1  A means of controlling the flow of air into a stove. Usually, a damper was a plate that could be slid across air openings, but the damper in a stovepipe was a metal disk mounted inside the pipe that could be turned from being parallel to the airflow to being perpendicular, completely cutting off air flow. 2  slightly wet.
