Assign Materials to the Part

With the geometry components created, we can easily assign the materials to the model.

  1. Type EMODIF, ALL, MAT, 9021 into the command window to assign the ply material to all elements. (Be sure to use the appropriate material id for the IM7_977-3 material as it may vary on your machine).
  2. Type EMODIF, rubber, MAT, 2 to assign the rubber material properties to the rubber geometry component.
