UniformAnisotropicMaterial

Overview

inherited from BaseMaterial, this represents a unifrom and anisotropic material:

  • uniform means material properties are not varying throught the element’s body, or in every location of element material properties are identical.

  • anisotropic means having different mechanical properties in different directions

Properties

There are 9 properties with this class:

  • Ex: Young’s Modulus in element’s local X direction

  • Ey: Young’s Modulus in element’s local Y direction

  • Ez: Young’s Modulus in element’s local Z direction

  • NuXy, NuYx: Poisson’s Ratio

  • NuYz, NuZy: Poisson’s Ratio

  • NuZx, NuXz: Poisson’s Ratio
