Laminate Composites > Creating a laminate physical property
Editing multiple laminate physical properties
You can edit multiple laminate physical properties or solid laminate physical properties at the same time.
For the selected physical property tables, you can modify:
Solver properties
Laminate properties, including:Stacking recipeZone angle toleranceReference plane location for 2D laminate propertiesReference temperaturePly and interlaminar failure theories including user-defined failure theories, interlaminar allowables, shear stress for bonding, and normal stress for bonding
Ply Layup. You can reverse either the plies and their ply IDs or just the plies keeping the original ply ID sequence.
Ply IDs. You can relabel the ply IDs using one of the following:A start label and an increment between ply IDs. The software relabels the existing ply IDs starting with the given start label and increments each subsequent ply ID by the increment value.An offset. The software relabels the existing ply IDs by offsetting their old value by the specified offset.
The following table lists the significance of icons that can be displayed in front of each property in the Multiple Edit Laminate Properties dialog box.
| Icon | Hover text | Description |
|---|---|---|
| No Change | Indicates that the value currently defined for this property is the same for all the selected laminate physical properties. | |
| No Change | Indicates that the value currently defined for this property is different for two or more of the selected laminate physical properties. | |
| Apply Change | Indicates that the change you made for this property is applied when you click OK. | |
| Indicates that the value of this property for all physical properties is the same as for the named laminate physical property, after you click OK. |
