How to calculate Cycles

Hi,

I have data, want to calculate cycles after each reset of lifetime(each cycle life hours are different),

lifeHours
0.2
3
12
18
22
0.8
1.5
2.9
5
8
11
17
1
4
5
8
13
17
23
28

Desired Output: Cycles start from 1

Cycles
  1
  1
  1
  1
  1
  2
  2

  2
  2

  3

Many thanks in advance,

If you have R2015 or later, you can use the repelem (link) function.

Defining ‘v’ as your vector:

[~,locs] = findpeaks(-v);                           % Find Minima
tlocs = [1; locs; numel(v)+1];                      % Define Cycle Limits
dlocs = diff(tlocs);                                % Cycle Lengths
Output = repelem([1 2 3], dlocs)';                  % Vector Of Cycle Designations (R2015a & Later)

Cycles = [v Output]

Cycles =
          0.2            1
            3            1
           12            1
           18            1
           22            1
          0.8            2
          1.5            2
          2.9            2
            5            2
            8            2
           11            2
           17            2
            1            3
            4            3
            5            3
            8            3
           13            3
           17            3
           23            3
           28            3

Consider the following code:

data = [0.2  3  12  18  22  0.8  1.5  2.9  8  11  17  1  4  5  8  13  17  23  28]'

% preallocation
cycle(length(data),1) = 0
% manually mark a beginning of the first cycle
cycle(1) = 1;

for i=2:length(data)
    if data(i)>data(i-1)
        cycle(i) = cycle(i-1);
    else
        cycle(i) = cycle(i-1)+1;
    end
end

cycle

The output:

>> cycle

cycle =

       1
       1
       1
       1
       1
       2
