Hi,<\/p>\n

I have a metarial with ICTE_x=25e-4, ICTE_y=-5e-4, ICTE_z=25e-4. Is it possible to create a local coordinate system for each mesh element, where, for example, the X vector will change discretely from -1 to 1 (like on image belowe)? I’m thinking of creating a CSV file in Matlab with three columns [x,y,z] and loading it into external data. And if it is possible, does that mean that in each element of the mesh ICTE will act on it through this local coordinate system?<\/p>\n

Thanks in advance,<\/p>\n
