From the menu bar in the Edit Material dialog box, select . (For information on displaying the Edit Material dialog box, see Creating or editing a material.)
Click the arrow to the right of the Type field, and specify the directional dependence of the electrical conductivity.
Toggle on Use frequency-dependent data to define electrical conductivity that varies with frequency. A column labeled Frequency appears in the Data table.
Toggle on Use temperature-dependent data to define electrical conductivity as a function of temperature. A column labeled Temp appears in the Data table.
Click the arrows to the right of the Number of field variables field to increase or decrease the number of field variables on which electrical conductivity depends.
Enter the applicable data in the Data table:
- Conductivity
Isotropic electrical conductivity. (Units of CT−1L−1−1 .)
- s11(E), s22(E), and s33(E)
Three values for orthotropic electrical conductivity, , , and . (Units of CT−1L−1−1.)
- s11(E), s12(E), s22(E), s13(E), s23(E), and s33(E)
Six values for anisotropic electrical conductivity, , , , , , and . (Units of CT−1L−1−1.)
- Frequency
Frequency in cycles/time.
- Temp
Temperature.
- Field n
Predefined field variables.
You may need to expand the dialog box to see all the columns in the Data table. For detailed information on how to enter data, see Entering tabular data.
Click OK to close the Edit Material dialog box. Alternatively, you can select another material behavior to define from the menus in the Edit Material dialog box (see Browsing and modifying material behaviors, for more information).
