Thermoset material dialog-Mechanical Properties tab
The Mechanical Properties tab of the Thermoset material is used to specify the mechanical properties of the thermoset material.
| Dialog element | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Mechanical properties data | These inputs are used to specify the mechanical properties of the material (matrix + fibers/filler in the case of composite materials) according to the five standard coefficients used to describe a viscoelastic material. |
| Transversely isotropic coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) data | These inputs are used to specify the thermal expansion properties of the material (matrix and fibers/filler in the case of composite materials). |
| View/edit test information | Click this button to view the source of this material data, the date that the data was last modified, the date of the testing, and the test method that was used for the data. |
