Ansys Mechanical material model inquiry

      Hello, does Ansys Mechanical/APDL have a material model that can handle orthotropic material that's also viscoelastic in each of the 3 ortrhogonal directions. 

      basically, is it possible to define prony series terms for each of the 3 axis of an orthotropic material model?  If this isn't possible, is there a material model that can do this?

      there's a post on this topic for LS-DYna.    It's not a duplicate.   I am trying to investigate the available material models for both solvers.   Thank you!
