Optional parameters
- EXPONENT
-
This parameter can be used only if OPERATOR=SUM.
Set this parameter equal to the inverse of the overall exponent in the
potential definition, .
must be a positive number. The default value is .
- OPERATOR
-
Set OPERATOR=SUM (default) to define the potential as the sum of the
contributions defined on each data line.
Set OPERATOR=MAX to define the potential as the contribution coming from the
data line that yields the maximum value. The
EXPONENT parameter is ignored in this case.
Data
lines to define the potential
- First line
-
Connector component number (1–6) or connector derived component name that is
used in the contribution.
-
Nonzero scaling factor R. The default value is
.
-
Positive exponent .
The default value is that of the EXPONENT parameter, .
The exponent is ignored if OPERATOR=MAX.
-
The function H to be used to generate the contribution.
H can be ABS (absolute value), MACAULEY
(Macauley bracket), or NONE (the identity
function). If OPERATOR=SUM, the function NONE can be used only if .
The default value is ABS.
-
Shift factor a. The default value is
.
-
Sign of this contribution s. The only admissible values
are
(default) and .
Repeat this data line as often as necessary to define the
potential.
