Defining elasticity

You use the Edit Material dialog box to create an elastic material and to specify its elastic material properties.

You can create the following elastic material models:

  • Elastic

  • Isotropic Hyperelastic

  • Anisotropic Hyperelastic

  • Hyperfoam

  • Low-Density Foam

  • Hypoelastic

  • Porous Elastic

  • Viscoelastic

For more information, see Elastic behavior.
