SubscriberHello,
I am simulating a solid where the material property is defined via APDL command (select solid - insert command - use TB to define material constants, where the default material selected is structural steel). Therefore, the material behavior is completely overwritten by the material model and parameters I input. In this case, how do I add/modify more physical properties such as density?
Sincerely,
Eric
