Solid Property

Solid property is a physical property assigned to a 3D part.

A solid property references a material assigned to this 3D part. A solid property is associative to the geometry this property points at.

The input and output characteristics are:

  • Input:
    • Material
  • Output:
    • Stress
    • Strain
    • Estimated error
    • Stress Von Mises
    • Elastic energy
    • Elastic energy density
    • Point force vector
    • Pressure (optional)

The output characteristics can be expressed at the given positions in the element and in different axis systems:
