+/**
+ * Models a damped harmonic oscillator, capturing the behavior of a mass-spring-damper system.
+ *
+ * <p>The system is defined by the second-order differential equation:
+ * x'' + 2 * gamma * x' + omega₀² * x = 0
+ * where:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li><b>omega₀</b> is the natural (undamped) angular frequency in radians per second.</li>
+ * <li><b>gamma</b> is the damping coefficient in inverse seconds.</li>
+ * </ul>
+ *
+ * <p>This implementation provides:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>An analytical solution for the underdamped case (γ < ω₀).</li>
+ * <li>A numerical integrator based on the explicit Euler method for simulation purposes.</li>
+ * </ul>
+ *
+ * <p><strong>Usage Example:</strong>
+ * <pre>{@code
+ * DampedOscillator oscillator = new DampedOscillator(10.0, 0.5);
+ * double displacement = oscillator.displacementAnalytical(1.0, 0.0, 0.1);
+ * double[] nextState = oscillator.stepEuler(new double[]{1.0, 0.0}, 0.001);
+ * }</pre>
