    The table data for this object are:
    
    - If *type*=RETENTION_FACTOR the table data specify the following:
        - Shear retention factor.
        - Crack opening strain.
        - Temperature, if the data depend on temperature.
        - Value of the first field variable, if the data depend on field variables.
        - Value of the second field variable.
        - Etc.
    - If *type*=POWER_LAW the table data specify the following:
        - e.
        - p.
        - Temperature, if the data depend on temperature.
        - Value of the first field variable, if the data depend on field variables.
        - Value of the second field variable.
        - Etc.

        Parameters
        ----------
        table
            A sequence of sequences of Floats specifying the items described below. 
        temperatureDependency
            A Boolean specifying whether the data depend on temperature. The default value is OFF. 
        dependencies
            An Int specifying the number of field variable dependencies. The default value is 0. 
        type
            A SymbolicConstant specifying the type of postcracking shear behavior. Possible values
