<div class="Description">
<h2>Description</h2>
<p>Function describing exponential decline from a defined starting value, with
a decreasing rate constant.</p>
<p>The form given here differs slightly from the original reference by Gustafson
and Holden (1990). The parameter <code>beta</code> corresponds to 1/beta in the
original equation.</p>
</div>
<div class="Note">
<h2>Note</h2>
<p>The solution of the FOMC kinetic model reduces to the
<code><a href='SFO.solution.html'>SFO.solution</a></code> for large values of <code>alpha</code> and
<code>beta</code> with
$k = beta/alpha$.</p>
</div>
<div class="Value">
<h2>Value</h2>
<p><dl>
The value of the response variable at time <code>t</code>.
