Used to specify individual material constants of the
materials of which members and elements are comprised.
Opens when a constant name is selected from the
Constants tool in
the
Materials group on the
Specifications ribbon tab. A separate dialog is
used to define each constant value.
The types of constants available to define are:
- Young's
Modulus – the modulus of elasticity, E
-
Poisson's Ratio,
ν
-
Shear Modulus,
G
-
Density ,
γ
-
Thermal Coefficient , α
-
Damping Ratio ,c

|
Select the scope of members which the material
constant is to be assigned.
- To
View assigns the material constant to all members within the
