rainflow
Reduces the number of vector points from the test data without losing the damage, magnitude, and/or effect of the test data.
Syntax
rainflow(yvect, numbins, minrange, maxrange, output, gate, debug)
Arguments
- yvect
- Time vector. Vector of the data to be analyzed.
- numbins
- Total number of bins specified. The total number of bins is always two more than the value set in the number of bins.
- minrange
- Minimum value a bin can have for its range of real time data.
- maxrange
- Maximum value a bin can have for its range of real time data.
- output (0/1/2/3/4)
- Used to determine the vector return type.
- 0 = X
- 1 = Y
- 2 = Z range/mean matrix
- 3 = Sum across range
- 4 = Sum across mean
- gate
- Hysteresis slope reversal control and also used to remove points due to external noise. The default value is 0 (disabled). Currently unsupported. Set to 0 if required to include the debug flag.
- debug
- Flag to turn on the debug mode (prints to the Message Log).
Example
X = rainflow(p1w1c1.y, 19, -2125, 5000, 0, 0)
Y = rainflow(p1w1c1.y, 19, -2125, 5000, 1, 0)
Z = rainflow(p1w1c1.y, 19, -2125, 5000, 2, 0)
