Optionally, you can include a parameter table of type "ABQ_AM_EigenStrain_PatternBased_Advanced" in the table collection. The table can define only one set of data.

Parameter Table Type Definition

PARAMETER TABLE TYPE, NAME="ABQ_AM_EigenStrain_PatternBased_Advanced", PARAMETERS=2
 STRING, "SWEEP", "Activation Technique", , "SWEEP|LAYERBYLAYER",
 STRING, "TRUE", "One Slice per Time Increment", , "TRUE|FALSE",

Parameters

Activation Technique
Set to "LAYERBYLAYER" to activate all elements of a layer/slice simultaneously. Set to "SWEEP" for progression of the element activation front in the I-direction in a layer/slice.
One Slice per Time Increment
Set to "TRUE" to control the time increment size automatically such that an increment always ends when all elements of a slice/layer are activated.
