A teaching figure: one smooth cosine annotating the MESOR (midline), the amplitude A and double amplitude 2A, the acrophase (clock time of the peak), and the period. Useful as a legend for the cosinor parameters. Returns a ggplot object and never errors.

Usage

plot_cosinor_schematic(
  mesor = 100,
  amplitude = 50,
  acrophase = 16,
  period = 24
)

Arguments

mesor, amplitude

Midline and amplitude of the illustrated cosine.

acrophase

Clock time of the peak, in hours.

period

Period in hours (default 24).

Value

A ggplot object.
