Material

Definition of material constitutive models for all Physics types.

Units need to be consistent.

Fields

name: String, default = ""

The name of the material. This is referenced by other objects in the input file. (required)
density: String, default = ""

Mass density of the material. Required for mechanical simulations. (required)
mechanical_properties: MechanicalProperties, default = {}

Table of mechanical properties. Required for mechanical simulations.
thermal_properties: ThermalProperties, default = {}

Table of thermal properties. Required for thermal simulations.
taylor_quinney_coefficient: Float, default = 0.0

Addition of the effect of plastic dissipation in the thermal equation (only for coupled thermo-mechanics, and when using a dissipative material)

This is done by setting the following Taylor-Quinney coefficient to a value different than zero, but still smaller or equal to one
