A set of arguments are required as part of the COMPAN command.
The Simulation Composite Analysis user programmable feature uses these arguments to determine the precise form of multiscale constitutive relations that should be used for that particular composite material. For any given Simulation Composite Analysis material, the number of arguments must be at least 5. The general form of the COMPAN command is:
COMPAN, arg1, arg2, arg3, . . . , arg16
The table below provides a short description of the constitutive modeling issue controlled by each of the 16 possible arguments along with the allowable range of values for each constant. A detailed description of the arguments is found in Appendices A.1 through A.13.
