) As Integer
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As ICWDampingOptions
Dim NRows As Integer
Dim Values As Object
Dim value As Integer
 
value = instance.SetDampingRatios(NRows, Values)
C#

   int NRows,
   object Values
)
C++/CLI 
int SetDampingRatios( 
&   int NRows,
&   Object^ Values
)

Parameters

NRows
Number of rows in Values
Values
Array of modes and damping ratios (see Remarks)

Return Value

Error code as defined in swsSetDampingRatiosError_e

Example

Remarks

This method works only if ICWDampingOptions::DampingType is set to swsDampingType_e.swsDampingType_Modal and ICWDampingOptions::ComputeFromMaterialDamping is set to 0 (off).

The Values parameter takes a one-dimensional array of one or more data sets, each containing:

  • Index of first mode
  • Index of last mode
  • Damping ratio
