Material Stress and Temperature Dependence
Description: Specifies temperature-dependent table references for MATS1 material properties. This entry is used if a MATS1 entry is specified with the same MID.
Format:
Example:
| Field | Definition | Type | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| MID | Material identification number that matches the MATS1 identification number. | Integer > 0 | Required |
| T(H) | TABLEMi identification number for work hardening slope. | Integer ≥ 0 or blank | |
| T(Y1) | TABLEMi identification number for initial yield point. | Integer ≥ 0 or blank |
Remarks:
- Temperature-dependent material properties are only calculated when a temperature distribution for materials is defined by using TEMPERATURE, TEMPERATURE(MATERIAL), or TEMPERATURE(BOTH) Case Control commands.
- Fields 5 and 8 of this entry correspond, one-by-one, to fields 5 and 8 of the MATS1 entry referenced in field 2. The value in a particular field of the MATS1 entry is replaced or modified by the table referenced in the corresponding field of this entry. In the example shown, H is modified by TABLEMi 100.
- Any quantity modified by this entry must have a value on the MATS1 entry.
- Table references must be present for each item that is temperature-dependent.
- Material nonlinear behavior requires a nonlinear solution.
