Description
In iTOUGH2, memory for (almost) all arrays is dynamically allocated. The size of the arrays holding basic input variables is either automatically determined or set to reasonably high values. Should this size be exceeded, the user is prompted to provide the maximum dimension for such arrays using second-level commands of command > DIMENSION, which must be the first command before any other first-level command. The table shows the second-level commands and their meaning.

Second-Level Command Dimension
NUMBER OF TIMES: maxim Total of all points in time, including calibration times, printout times, restart times
NUMBER OF RESTARTS: maxbrk Restart times
MAXEBRK: maxebrk Number of elements or materials which changed conditions after restart
NUMBER OF PARAMETERS: maxn Number of parameters to be varied or estimated by iTOUGH2 (including inactive parameters)
NUMBER OF OBSERVATIONS: maxm Total number of observations
NUMBER OF PEST OBSERVATIONS: maxpestobs Total number of PEST observations
NUMBER OF REGULARIZATION TERMS: maxreg Total number of regularization terms
MAXR: maxr Number of multiple entries (materials, elements, indices, etc.) on iTOUGH2 command lines
NUMBER OF DATA SETS: maxo Number of data sets (usually points in space where calibration data are available)
NUMBER OF DATA POINTS: maxpd Maximum number of measured data points per data set

Parameter statements related to the dimensions TOUGH2-related arrays are specified in the TOUGH2 input file in block DIMEN.

Example
> DIMENSION
>> NUMBER OF TIMES: 2000
>> NUMBER OF PARAMETERS: 75
>> MAXR: 230
