The error message is clear: linterp requires that the first argument is a vector with values in ascending order. Your vector Lv2 has values 1, 2, 4, 7, 0 and 0.

The first four values are ascending (every next value is higher than the previous), but the fifth and sixth are 0, that is less than 7.

Considering you have empty or zero values in that part of the table that you draw Lv2 from, I suggest you cut the bottom two lines (for layers 5 and 6) from the table. Then it should work.

Note that the result of the function is not 18, but 17.41 kg/m^3, because, contrary to its name, linterp also extrapolates linearly.

 

Success!

Thanks Luc thats spot on, yes changed the values in the table and it returned 17.41 kg/m^3.

 

Yes correct Luc, i have swapped the Interp out to get
