Numerous material models are available in NairnFEA.
Define a Material
You create materials using a Material command block. Within that block all material properties are set using property commands. Refer to each material type to learn about its possible properties.
Linear Elastic Small Strain Materials
NairnFEA currently only has small-strain, linear elastic materials.
