Required arguments

table

A sequence of sequences of Floats specifying the items described below.

Optional arguments

temperatureDependency

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

dependencies

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

Table data

  • Yield stress in compression, σc.

  • The absolute value of the corresponding plastic strain.(The first tabular value entered must always be zero.)

  • Temperature, if the data depend on temperature.

  • Value of the first field variable, if the data depend on field variables.

  • Value of the second field variable.

  • Etc.

Return value

A CastIronCompressionHardening object.

Exceptions

RangeError.

setValues(...)

Required arguments

None.

Optional arguments

The optional arguments to setValues are the same as the arguments to the CastIronCompressionHardening method.

Return value

None.

Exceptions

RangeError.

Members

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