Prototype

odb_BiaxialTestData&
BiaxialTestData(const odb_SequenceSequenceDouble& table,
                odb_Union smoothing,
                bool lateralNominalStrain,
                bool temperatureDependency,
                int dependencies);

Required arguments

table

An odb_SequenceSequenceDouble specifying the following:

  • Nominal stress, TB.

  • Nominal strain, ϵB.

Optional arguments

smoothing

The string "NONE" or an Int specifying the value for smoothing. If smoothing="NONE", no smoothing is employed. The default value is "NONE".

lateralNominalStrain

A Boolean specifying whether to include lateral nominal strain. The default value is false.

temperatureDependency

A Boolean specifying whether the data depend on temperature. The default value is false.

dependencies

An Int specifying the number of field variable dependencies. The default value is 0.

Return value

A BiaxialTestData object.

Exceptions

None.

Members

The BiaxialTestData object has members with the same names and descriptions as the arguments to the BiaxialTestData method.
