  Hello reader,
  I am trying to moddel a material after a physical test that was prefromed in the data of the test the youngs modulus was expresed in terms of the frequency of excitation as seen in the figure below.
  it is possible to make a material withing ansys mechanical with these material properties.
  I want to determine the eigenfrequencies of a structure made of this material and it seems that i have to use a full harmonic analysis but i cant figure out how to include this
  when working in the engineering data for isotropic elasticity i can select frequency as a field varialbe but it doenst appear to do anything
  is this the correct way of including this?

  Hi
  That should work (tried it out and seems good).
