Sine Time Series

This command creates a TrigSeries TimeSeries object and associates it to the LoadPattern object being constructed.

Sine $tStart $tFinish $period <-shift $shift> <-factor $cFactor>

$tStart

start time when the load factor is applied

$tFinish

end time when the load factor is applied

$period

characteristic period of sine wave

$shift

phase shift (radians) (optional. default = 0.0)

$cFactor

load-factor coefficient. (optional. default = 1.0)

The load factor applied to the loads and constraints in the LoadPattern object is equal to:
