Be from the same domain: either the time domain or the frequency domain. Otherwise, Adams/View issues an error and does not execute the command.

If the two components are complex, the new component will be complex. A component containing the magnitude of the new component is also created and is named name_MAGNITUDE. For example, if the new component is named X, the magnitude component will be named X_MAGNITUDE.

The A_MULTIPLIER parameter is used as a constant coefficient in the linear_equation operation for manipulating numeric results. The linear equation is of the form:
A*X + B*Y = Result Where A corresponds to the A_MULTIPLIER.

|
The B_MULTIPLIER parameter is used as a constant coefficient in the linear_equation operation for manipulating numeric results. The linear equation is of the form:
A*X + B*Y = Result where B corresponds to the B_MULTIPLIER. This parameter is optional and if not entered, it will default to 1.0. If entered, the B_MULTIPLIER must be a real number.

Specifies the type of units to be used for the new result set component. Once you set the unit type, Adams/View can perform the proper unit conversion on the data.

In an existing result set, the name must include the result set. For example, assume you have a request file called SHIFT.REQ, and it contains the result set REQ1. If you want to store the new result set component in result set REQ1 with the component name NEW, enter:

•
|
In a new results set, named REQ99, for example, in the analysis run SHIFT, enter .SHIFT.REQ99.NEW. The number of components to be stored is inferred by the number of components named in this parameter. You can enter multiple names, separated by commas (,).
|
The component name must be unique, even though it can be stored in an existing result set. A result set name can be of any length and any combination of alphanumeric characters. The leading character must be a letter.
Result sets are associated with an analysis and can be identified as such. A result set associated with request 101 from an analysis named test is often referred to as .test.req101.
The table below illustrates the default names assigned to result sets and result set components, read from request (.req) and results (.res) files.

If the value for the “units” parameter is calculate, Adams/View tries to determine the units to use for this operation. For example, if velocities are added (length/time), then the calculated “units” parameter for the new result set component is velocity (length/time). If the derivative of a velocity is taken, the calculated “units” parameter is acceleration (length/time**2).
|
Adams/View can only handle calculated units with a maximum exponent for the base units (force, length, mass, time) of plus or minus four. For example, if a result set component with the units (length/time**3) is multiplied with a result set component having the same units, it gives the calculated units (length**2/time**6). Because the exponent of time is greater than four, Adams/View uses no_units and issues a warning.
Values are: no_units, calculate, length, angle, mass, density, time, area, volume, velocity, acceleration, angular_velocity, angular_acceleration, inertia, area_inertia, damping, stiffness, torsion_stiffness, torsion_damping, force, torque, pressure, force_time, torque_time.
