I have a csv data file with x,y,z coordinates, youngs modulus and poisson&#8217;s ratio. I have a simulation model with a finer mesh (i.e., interpolation needs to be done to get the corresponding material properties in other nodes). How can I map this material properties from the coarser mesh model to this finer mesh model? I tried using &#8220;External Data&#8221; system module present in Ansys workbench. However, there is no option in the drop-down menu for selecting youngs modulus and poisson&#8217;s ratio as column data types.
