  4. Make sure the appropriate units are selected and click Plot Profile to view the non-linear stress-strain data.

  5. Click Close and click Done.
  6. Review the mechanical properties of the material by clicking Material > Review > Material Data.
  7. Navigate to the Mechanical Models tab to review the calculated Ramberg-Osgood parameters. Click OK.

Note: Now that you have learned to use Advanced Material Exchange to add non-linear stress-strain data to your model, you may wish to use a personal database file to store the Ramberg-Osgood parameters for future use.

To create a personal database file after you have added the non-linear stress and strain data:
  1. Click Material > Export > Export Material Data.
  2. Save the file to your Moldflow Synergy materials directory (usually C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Simulation Moldflow Synergy 2015\data\udb).
  3. Open a Moldflow Insight model and select the material (Home > Molding Process Setup > Select Material).
  4. Locate the Ultramid B3EG6 manufacturer and choose the appropriate trade name for the .udb file you just saved.

Now this material has the Ramberg-Osgood parameters stored, so when you import your next model into Advanced Material Exchange you won't need to add the non-linear stress-strain data.
