Class
Foam::distributions::exponential
Description
Exponential distribution, scaled so that it spans between a specified
minimum and maximum value, rather than from zero to infinity
\f[
PDF(x) = \lambda \exp(- \lambda x)
\f]
Usage
Example usage:
\verbatim
{
type exponential;
Q 3;
min 0.01;
max 0.5;
lambda 3;
}
\endverbatim
