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...

Abdelkader BOUAZIZ

Dear Claudia Valderrama, both graphene and graphene oxide are used as matrices or in conjuction with conventianal matrices in MALDI-TOF. I couldn't find a work where graphene and its derivatives are analyzed by this technique. My Regards

Claudia Marcela Valderrama-Rios

Dear Abdelkader BOUAZIZ thank you for your answer. Kind regards.

Doufnoune RACHIDA Rachida

Hi;

Functionalized graphene oxide is also used as matrix in MALDI TOF.

My best regards
