THE GEOMETRY OF THE FLINCH (ζ vs γ)

CRITICALLY DAMPED
Overshoot: 0.0%
Settling Time: -- s
Energy Lost (Heat): 0.0 J
Regime: Butterworth

Instructions: Drag the mass (blue circle) down and release to create a step input. Observe the "flinch" (recovery path).

Theory: γ ≈ 0.724 corresponds to the optimal trade-off between speed and stability (Butterworth filter).
