Use an inherited material in a physical property table

This procedure shows how to use a material inherited from a body in a physical property table that is assigned to a mesh collector.

Ensure that the FEM is the work or displayed part.
In the Simulation Navigator, right-click a mesh collector and choose Edit.
In the Mesh Collector dialog box, click Edit .
In the physical property dialog box, select Inherited from the Material list.The physical property table now uses the material assigned to the body.
Click OK in all dialog boxes.
