MHB Classification/terminology for shape of a curve

[ATroelstein]

I have generated the graph shown below and now would like to describe it at a high-level according to the curved nature of the plotted line. Besides simply stating observations such as the exponential growth at approximately x = 0.19, is there a classification or term for the shape of the curve this line makes? Thank you.

semi-sinusoidal about an apparently exponential decay?

EDIT: also, "jagged" works for me :)

Hi ATroelstein!

It looks like a step response followed by an exponential decay to some kind of saturation level.
Looks as if the exponential decay has a characteristic time of about 0.1 horizontal unit and a final saturation value of about 23 vertical units.
There appears to be a noise level on top of that with an amplitude of about 2 vertical units.

Reminds me of a capacitor output curve after an impulse input voltage...
