Learning Curve Model

Learned in ECE192 when learning about learning curve models.

A percentage or rate at which output is increased due to repetition $T_N=T_{initial}\ast N^b$ where:

• $T_N$ is the time required for the 𝑁𝑁𝑡𝑡𝑡 unit of production
• $T_{initial}$ the time required for the first unit of production
• $N$ is the number of completed units
• $b$ is the learning curve exponent $b=\frac{\log (\text{learning curve percentage {decimal}})}{\log 2}$

This equation uses 2 because the learning curve percentage applies for doubling cumulative production
