Elastic Orthotropic Material

This command is used to construct an ElasticOrthotropic material object.

nDMaterial ElasticOrthotropic $matTag $Ex $Ey $Ez $vxy
        $vyz $vzx $Gxy $Gyz $Gzx < $rho >

matTag

integer tag identifying material

Ex, Ey, Ez

elastic modulii in three mutually perpendicular directions (\(x\), \(y\), and \(z\))

vxy, vyz, vzx

Poisson’s ratios

Gxy, Gyz, Gzx

shear modulii

rho

mass density, optional default = 0.0.

The material formulations for the ElasticOrthotropic object are - ThreeDimensional, - PlaneStrain, - Plane Stress, - AxiSymmetric, - BeamFiber, and - PlateFiber.
