Syntax

• AddSuspension( Value As Double , NumberInGroup As Integer , Stress() As Object ) Adds suspensions to the data set, using the specified time, the number of suspensions at that time and an array of stress values/profiles for all the stresses.
• AddSuspension( Value As Double , NumberInGroup As Integer , Stress1 As Object ) Adds suspensions to the data set, using the specified time, the number of suspensions at that time and a single stress value/profile.
• AddSuspension( Value As Double , NumberInGroup As Integer , Stress1 As Object , Stress2 As Object ) Adds suspensions to the data set, using the specified time, the number of suspensions at that time and two stress values/profiles.

Parameters

Value: The suspension time.

NumberInGroup: The number of units that were suspended at the Value time.

Stress(): An array containing numeric stress values or references to added ALTAStressProfiles.

Stress1: A numeric stress value or reference to an added ALTAStressProfile.

Stress2: A numeric stress value or reference to an added ALTAStressProfile.

Usage Example

 'Declare a new ALTADataSet object. See ALTADataSet for. 
 Dim ADS As New ALTADataSet("AddFailure_Example")
 
 'Define a new stress. See AddStressDefinition. 
 ADS.AddStressDefinition("Stress1")

 'Add 5 suspensions at time = 500 and stress = 100 to the data set. 
 ADS.AddSuspensions(500, 5, 100)
