In the suture region in the middle part of it, it has transversley isotropic properties which change along length. Because the suture area has fibers that have different angles. So, they lead to changes in the material properties along length. I was wondering if there is a possibility that defines different material properties in Ansys Workbench or if should I use Matlab code and enter it in Ansys.<\/p>\n<p>The boundary conditions are fixed support is one side and tensile force on the other side.<\/p>\n<p>Please help me in this area.<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/11-05-2023-1683828074-Picture1.png\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-283511","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["54941","200"],"_bbp_author_ip":["96.7.74.151"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["366"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["283511"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["200","54941"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["3"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["283985"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["283985"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2023-05-15 11:40:34"]},"test":"sadatiualberta-ca"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/283511","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/283511\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=283511"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
