The Smooth Ramp component uses a hyperbolic tangent function to generate a smooth ramp signal. At time t=T0 (mid-point time), the output y equals offset+height2. The rate of change at time t=T0 is dydtx=a|f(x)t=T0= k0 (mid-point rate).
The equation of this component is
y= offset + 12⋅tanh2⋅k0⋅t − T0+1⋅height
