Material Property Views (Simcenter Samcef)
When you copy, create, edit, or inspect Simcenter Samcef materials, you can filter the materials dialog boxes to display only Simcenter Samcef material properties using the Property View list. For more information on filtering material properties using the Property View list, see Filtering specific material properties by solver and analysis type.
In Samcef, you can use the Property View list to create the following materials:
Structure materials
An Isotropic or an Isotropic Linear Damage material. For more information, see Isotropic Material Definition dialog box (Simcenter Samcef Structure).
An Orthotropic, an Orthotropic Bilinear, or an Orthotropic Linear Damage material. For more information, see Orthotropic Material dialog box (Simcenter Samcef Structure).
An Anisotropic material. For more information, see Anisotropic Material Definition dialog box (Simcenter Samcef Structure).
