·         Modify_Media_Parameters

S_NAME

No_of_It

<Heating_Time>

It invokes a single construction of average dissipated power pattern starting at the current iterations and lasting for No_of_It iterations. This will be followed by updating the enthalpy and temperature patterns and re-calculating the lcsm matrices. The heating time step is given in <Heating_Time> field.

·         Modify_Media_Parameters_Rot

S_NAME

No_of_It

<Heating_Time>

<X_Origin>

<Y_Origin>

<Angular_Angle>

SH3_NAME

It invokes a single construction of average dissipated power pattern starting at the current iteration. This will be followed by updating the enthalpy and temperature patterns and re-calculating the lcsm matrices. The duration of the pattern construction is specified in the No_of_It field, and the heating time step in <Heating_Time> field. The load will be rotated in subcircuit S_NAME with the origin of rotation <X_Origin>, <Y_Origin>, rotation angle <Angular_Angle> and corresponding new shape file SH3_NAME.

·         Modify_Media_Parameters_Rot_Ext

S_NAME

No_of_It

<Heating_Time>

<Movement_type> [<Movement_type> ....]

 <X_Origin_or_Shift> [<X_Origin Origin_or_Shift >...]

<Y_Origin Origin_or_Shift > [<Y_Origin Origin_or_Shift >...]

<Angular_Angle> <Angular_Angle>

SH3_NAME

This task extends Modify_Media_Parameters_Rot in two ways. Firstly, it allows considering more than one moving object in a scenario, however, regions covered by movements of these objects must be non-overlapping. Secondly, it allows two types of movements: rotation around an axis parallel to the z-axis or as translation along an arbitrary piece-wise linear trajectory in the xy-plane.

It invokes a single construction of average dissipated power pattern starting at the current iteration. This will be followed by updating the enthalpy and temperature patterns and re-calculating the lcsm matrices. The duration of the pattern construction is specified in the No_of_It field, and the heating time step in <Heating_Time> field.

The load(s) will be moved in subcircuit S_NAME. Consecutive keywords <Movement_type> describe types of movement for consecutive moving loads. The number of these keywords is equal to the number of moving objects. There are two possible keywords: Rota (for rotation) and Tran (for translation).

Consecutive three lines contain parameters of the movements. Each line must have as many entries as there are <Movement_type> keywords. The <X_Origin_or_Shift> and <Y_Origin_or_Shift> denote position of the axis of rotation for Rota or load shifts in x- and y-direction for Tran. <Angular_Angle> denotes the angle of rotation for Rota and should be 0 for Tran.

External limits of the volumes wherein the consecutive movements are constrained must be defined in a separate project_name.mv3 file in the project directory. The new shape (after all movements are completed) is described in SH3_NAME file.

·         Modify_Media_Parameters_Multiple

Decomposed into a sequence of periodically performed Modify_Media_Parameters from *.pmo file. Applicable for usage with QW-BHM module. It is available only in Breakpoints and there is no separate task.

·         Modify_Media_Parameters_Multiple_T

An extension to Modify_Media_Parameters_Multiple, in that the pattern of one selected component is saved after each Modify_Media_Parameters. Applicable for usage with QW-BHM module. It is available only in Breakpoints and there is no separate task.

·         Change_Excitation_Parameters

S_NAME

<Port_Name1> [<Port_Name2>...]

<Port_Freq1> [<Port_Freq2>...]

<Port_Amp1> [<Port_Amp2>...]

<Port_Delay1> [<Port_Delay2>...]

Sets frequency (Port_Freq1), amplitude (Port_Amp1) and delay (Port_Delay1) in port of name Port_Name1 and consecutively in the next ports (if parameters are present) in subcircuit S_NAME.
