Does anyone have experience of using a USERMAT subroutine with the ANSYS Composite PrePost?

12 December 2015 1 8K Report

Hello everyone,

Does anyone have experience of using a USERMAT subroutine with the ANSYS Composite PrePost? I can't find any option in ACP to define my material as 'user-defined'.

René Roos

Hi Neraj,

I am one of the ACP developers and in general it is possible but the workflow slightly differs whether you are using ACP within WB or in standalone mode.

I suggest to discuss it bilateral because it is much easier. Please contact me by email at [email protected].

Best regards,

Rene
