In summary, time behavior refers to the way a system or phenomenon changes over time and can be studied using mathematical concepts. A sinusoidal time behavior follows a sine wave pattern, while a circle can be used to represent periodic time behavior. Periodic time behavior repeats at regular intervals, while non-periodic behavior does not have a predictable pattern. These forms of time behavior are widely used in science for modeling and predicting phenomena, with sinusoidal behavior used to represent oscillations and non-periodic behavior observed in chaotic systems. They can also be analyzed to gain insights into underlying mechanisms and dynamics.

I know the time is not a straight line, but what other sorts of behaviour can have? Sinus, Circle,arbitrary periodic non periodic forms, discrete forms? could you please tell me?

I think it's more basic than that. There's really nothing to tell that isn't already obvious.

Actually, follow me on twitter @tomorrowspace, I've been theorizing on time for a couple of weeks now...
 

FAQ: Time Behavior: Sinus, Circle, Periodic & Non-Periodic Forms

What is the definition of time behavior?

Time behavior refers to the way in which a system or phenomenon changes over time. It can be studied and described using mathematical concepts and models.

What is a sinusoidal time behavior?

A sinusoidal time behavior is a type of periodic behavior that follows a sine wave pattern. This means that the system or phenomenon repeats itself at regular intervals, with the same amplitude and frequency.

How is a circle related to time behavior?

A circle can be used to represent periodic time behavior, as it is a closed shape that repeats itself endlessly. It can also be used to visualize the relationship between different time periods, such as the relationship between hours, minutes, and seconds on a clock.

What is the difference between periodic and non-periodic time behavior?

Periodic time behavior repeats itself at regular intervals, while non-periodic time behavior does not have a predictable pattern and may not repeat itself. Non-periodic time behavior can also be referred to as aperiodic.

How are these forms of time behavior used in science?

Time behavior, particularly periodic behavior, is widely used in science for modeling and predicting various phenomena. For example, sinusoidal time behavior is commonly used to represent oscillations in physical systems, while non-periodic behavior is observed in chaotic systems. These forms of time behavior can also be analyzed to gain insights into the underlying mechanisms and dynamics of a system.
