Documentation

The LoadPattern class is a concrete base class. A LoadPattern is a container class for Load and SP_Constraint objects. Each LoadPattern object is assocaited with a TimeSeries object which, for a given pseudo time, will return the appropriate load factor to be applied to th load in the LoadPattern.

LoadPattern(int tag)

The integer tag is passed to the DomainComponent classes constructor. Creates three ArrayOftaggedObjects objects to store pointers to the NodalLoad, ElementalLoad and SP_Constraints and three iters. If not enough memory is available for these objects an error message is printed and the program is terminated.

LoadPattern()

This is the constructor provided for subclasses to use. The integers tag and classTag are passed to the DomainComponent classes constructor.

LoadPattern(int tag, int classTag)

Invokes the destructor on the TimeSeries object. Also invokes the destructor on any objects created in the constructor for storage of the pointers and for iters. It does not invoke the destructor on these objects, the Domain object is responsible for doing this.
