ABQ_AM_EigenStrain_PatternBased_Define

This parameter table type is used in special-purpose techniques for additive manufacturing.

This page discusses:

You can include multiple parameter tables of type "ABQ_AM_EigenStrain_PatternBased_Define" in the table collection. Each table must have a unique label. Each table can have multiple sets of data; each set defines one patch/island in a scan pattern.
