I am trying to assign shear modulus value to an element, however, the equation of it is a function of pore water pressure rise. subsequently, the value is varying for each node, how can I assign the shear modulus on nodes?
thanks for advance.
Material properties are assigned to elements.
I think you can't have different properties on nodes from one element.
If you check the "MAT" command : "Assign this material number to subsequently defined elements".
Then you can modify element properties, such as material, with the "EMODIF" command.
If you check the "MP" command : "Material reference number to be associated with the elements".
thanks, Dr jean for your answer,
but is this process requires to re-mesh the model or it can be performed during the solution?
