      One can create a dummy model which has the desired Engineering Data material properties ascribed to a geometry body (or bodies). Under any given geometry body, insert a commands object and issue the command ‘CDWRITE,MAT’. After solving the model, file.cdb, with APDL commands defining the material properties, will be written to the Solver Files directory. These can then be included in an APDL script.
