Hi

The commands to look at are, MP, etc.

So to define material properties needed for structural analysis we need at least the three commands, that can be added in a command snippet under a part:

MP,EX,MATID,200E9          ! Define Elasticity Modulus

 

MP,NUXY,MATID,0.3           ! Define Poisson’s ratio     

MP,DENS,MATID,7800       ! Density

All the best

Erik
