It seems pretty clear you can't use matrix27 to input a non-symmetric non-positive definite matrix. My guess is the solver will stop or error out if you do. I'm pretty familiar with rotordynamic analysis and I haven't ever encountered a need to do this. What physics are you modeling that are so unique?
