DecayAmplitude(...)

This method creates a DecayAmplitude object.

Path

mdb.models[name].DecayAmplitude
session.odbs[name].DecayAmplitude

Required arguments

name

A String specifying the repository key.

initial

A Float specifying the constant A0.

maximum

A Float specifying the coefficient A.

start

A Float specifying the starting time t0. Possible values are non-negative numbers.

decayTime

A Float specifying the decay time td. Possible values are non-negative numbers.

Optional arguments

timeSpan

A SymbolicConstant specifying the time span of the amplitude. Possible values are STEP and TOTAL. The default value is STEP.

Return value

A DecayAmplitude object.

Exceptions

InvalidNameError and RangeError.

setValues(...)

This method modifies the DecayAmplitude object.

Required arguments

None.

Optional arguments

The optional arguments to setValues are the same as the arguments to the DecayAmplitude method, except for the name argument.

Return value

None.

Exceptions

RangeError.

Members

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