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.
- type
A SymbolicConstant specifying the type of postcracking shear behavior. Possible values are RETENTION_FACTOR and POWER_LAW. The default value is RETENTION_FACTOR.
Table data
If type=RETENTION_FACTOR the table data specify the following:
Shear retention factor.
Crack opening strain.
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.
If type=POWER_LAW the table data specify the following:
e.
p.
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 BrittleShear object.
Exceptions
RangeError.
