How to define an anisotropic material with asymmetric elastic compliance/stiffness matrix in ANSYS APDL?

I need to model an anisotropic material in which the Poisson's ratio ν_12 ≠ ν_21 and so on. Therefore, the elastic compliance matrix wouldn't be a symmetric one. In ANSYS APDL, for TB,ANEL...

Ludwig Gruber

The capability of scanning electron microscopy for wet biological samples is limited. The SEM measurement is performed under vacuum. One possible approach is Cryo prep, but this needs the appropriate instrumentation.

Kahina Ighilahriz

Ludwig Gruber thank you for the answer, unfortunately, I don't have the suitable instrumentation.

Klara Degardin thank you for sharing, a very interesting paper
