How to distort a sigmoid / logistic function?

100 Views Asked by At

Please help. I need to move an object such that its distance / time profile resembles a sigmoid curve but in a non-symmetrical manner.

1- Let's say that I need to move 800cm in 3 seconds. How do I distort a sigmoid curve whilst still crossing the axes at the same points, eg:

distorted sigmoid

In the above diagram, y is the distance left to travel (800cm) and t is time, starting at 0 and going to 3s.

2- How do I make sure that the acceleration of the curve doesn't exceed some value a, eg 1.5m/s^2?
