T2050 WARNING: T2050 MATERIAL SPECIFIED IN FIELD field NOT COMPATIBLE WITH FAILURE THEORY
Cause: A material property was specified on a PCOMP entry which was not compatible with one of the following failure theories:
  • For the LaRC02 and PUCK failure theories a non-unidirectional material was specified. The LaRC02 and PUCK failure theories are only applicable for unidirectional materials and may give inaccurate results if a bi-directional material is specified.
  • For the MCT failure theory a MATL8 entry must be used to define an orthotropic material which references separate matrix and fiber properties.
Action: Perform the following actions:
  • For the LaRC02 and PUCK failure theories either replace the reference with a unidirectional material or change the failure theory.
  • For the MCT failure theory either replace the reference with a MATL8 generated orthotropic material or change the failure theory.

Note that the Tsai-Wu failure theory will be substituted for plies that reference a non-compatible material but the failure theory listed in the Model Results Output File will be what was specified on the PCOMP entry.

Remarks: See Autodesk Nastran Reference Guide, Section 4, Bulk Data, for entry format.
