Intervals

Menu: Data->Intervals

Intervals are a way of separating information into several groups; information for every group can also be duplicated, if desired. When a new interval is defined, you can choose whether or not to copy all the new information about conditions assigned to entities.

Therefore, the correct way to work is to define all the conditions first and afterwards create the new intervals.

The options are:

These groups, or intervals, can be used to change some conditions or information, like the increment factor in an incremental analysis. They can also be useful in order to define load states for the same geometry.
