ABQFields (Collection)

The collection of Abaqus field (ABQTemperature) objects contained in
ABQInitialStep and ABQGeneralStaticStep and ABQExplicitDynamicsStep objects.

Method Index

Add
Creates a new Abaqus field and adds it to the collection of Abaqus fields.
Item
Returns an Abaqus field using its index or its name from the
Remove
Removes an Abaqus field using its index or its name from the field collection.

Methods


o Func Add( iFieldType) As
Creates a new Abaqus field and adds it to the collection of Abaqus fields. The ABQInitialTemperature object can be created only in an ABQFields collection obtained from ABQInitialStep. Similarly the ABQTemperatureHistory object can be created only in an ABQFields collection obtained from ABQGeneralStaticStep.
Parameters:
iFieldType
The type of the field to create.

Legal values:
"ABQInitialTemperature"
"ABQTemperatureHistory"
Returns:
oTemperature The Abaqus field object that was created.
Example:
The following example creates an initial temperature in the ABQFields collection obtained from the ABQInitialStep type object: 
 Dim abqInitialStep As ABQInitialStep
 Dim abqFields As ABQIAABQFields
 Dim abqInitalTemp As ABQTemperature
 Set abqFields = abqInitialStep.Fields
 Set abqInitalTemp =  abqFields.Add("ABQInitialTemperature")
o Func Item( iIndex) As
Returns an Abaqus field using its index or its name from the ABQFields collection.
Parameters:
iIndex
The index or the name of the Abaqus field to retrieve from the collection of Abaqus fields. If the index is a number, it specifies the rank of the Abaqus field in the collection. The index of the first Abaqus field in the collection is 1, and the index of the last field is Count. If the index is a string, it specifies the name you assigned to the field using the CATIACollection::Name property.
Returns:
The specified ABQTemperature.
o Sub Remove( iIndex)
Removes an Abaqus field using its index or its name from the field collection.
Parameters:
iIndex
The index or the name of the Abaqus field to retrieve from the collection of Abaqus Fields. If the index is a number, it specifies the rank of the Abaqus field in the collection. The index of the first Abaqus field in the collection is 1, and the index of the last field is Count. If the index is a string, it specifies the name you assigned to the field using the CATIABase::Name property.
