!ELASTIC

Definition of elastic material

Parameter

TYPE = ISOTROPIC (Default)/ ORTHOTROPIC / USER
DEPENDENCIES = 0 (Default)/1
INFINITESIMAL    When specified, infinitesimal deformation is assumed

2nd Line or later

  • In the case of TYPE = ISOTROPIC
(2nd Line) YOUNGS, POISSON, Temperature
Parameter Name Attributions Contents
YOUNGS R Young's Modulus
POISSON R Poisson's Ratio
Temperature R Temperature (required when DEPENDENCIES = 1)
  • In case of TYPE=ORTHOTROPIC

Note: When using TYPE=ORTHOTROPIC, the corresponding !SECTION must specify a local coordinate system via the ORIENTATION= parameter. Omitting ORIENTATION= will cause the solver to abort at runtime.
