3.1. Keyword factor TABLE#

Definition of constant linear elastic characteristics or functions.

The TABLE keyword makes it easy to write DEFI_MATERIAU for certain behaviors (COMPOR) by reading data from a table. TABLE is used to create functions.

The parameters are stored in columns, with an additional column to give the x-axis of the functions that are created (NOM_PARA). For example, the following table defines elastic behavior.
