Glass Transition Temperature (Simcenter Samcef)

Use the Glass Transition Temperature command to define the magnitude of the glass transition temperature for the curing reaction. You can define the magnitude as a constant value, expression, spatial field, or a field that defines how the glass transition temperature varies with time.

For more information, see the curing thermoset material and the curing of thermoset resins pages in the Simcenter Samcef solver documentation.
