getAlpha

MATLAB

alpha = getAlpha(Atm,[ModelName])

Given a structure or array of structures from AtmStruct, returns a vector of multipliers applied to the base model function for the specified effect.

Parameters	Description
Atm [struct]	Structure or array of structures from AtmStruct
ModelName [string]	(Optional) Name of effect in Atm for which to extract the multiplier. Defaults to 'Cn2'

Return Values	Description
alpha [vector]	Vector of multipliers for ModelName

alpha = getAlpha(Atm);
- get the multiplier on Cn2 from the input Atm
Atm = ChangeAtm(Atm,'Wind',{'Bufton','4*Bufton','10*Bufton'});
alpha = getAlpha(Atm,'Wind');
- return the multiplier applied to the Bufton model for wind speed.
