This tutorial focuses on using predefined materials or creating new materials for a model. An example viscoelastic material is defined and used in a time-dependent structural analysis.
Learning objectives:
1. Import predefined materials from the Engineering Data Sources.
2. Create a new custom material.
3. Conduct a viscoelastic analysis with time-varying load.
4. Contrast the necessary and allowable material properties for different ANSYS analysis objects.
