MaterCommand
Mater Command
mater - get and set material properties. Parameters are set as part of alagator.
Synopsis
mater
[list] [bulk] [all] [add] [name = <c>] [alias = <c>]
Description
This command allows the user to create and modify solution names and set conditions for their inclusion in the assembly. Solutions can also be listed and checked.
- add
- Create a new materal.
- name
- The character string used for the material. Capitalization is not ignored. "Silicon" and "silicon" are different. Abbreviations of the name are also not accepted.
- alias
- This how you get around the problems created by "Capitalization is not ignored. "Silicon" and "silicon" are different. Abbreviations of the name are also not accepted." A user can create shorthand names, different capitalizations, and abbreviations to the main name.
- list, all, bulk
- The list option will list all of the currently defined materials in the active structure. All will list all materials that have been defined, even if they ar not currently present. Bulk modifies both of the previous options to list bulk materials only and not interfaces.
Examples
mater name=Potential damp negative solve add
Create a solution named potential and always solve for it. Allow the solution to have negative values, and use damping on the Newton iteration updates.
solution name = Int !damp !negative solve add
Create a solution name Int and always solve for it. Do not use damping and do not allow values to become negative.
solution name = I2 !damp !negative ifpresent = {Int Vac} add
Create a solution named I2 and solve for it if Int and Vac are also present and being solved for.
solution list
Return a list of all solutions.
solution name = Int present
Return a boolean true if Int has been defined and there is a data field with the name Int.
solution name = Interstitial alias Int
Adds an alias to Interstitial to Int so that either string will point at the same solution.
