addMaterial

Different MaterialModels have different input arguments:

Arguments

$MaterialLabel: Unique Analysis Label for reference

$MaterialModelLabel: Specifies which MaterialModel is being used.

$RequiredArgument1Label $RequiredArgument1Value ...: Labels and corresponding values for MaterialModel-specific required argument.

$InputArgument1Label $InputArgument1Value …: Labels and corresponding values for MaterialModel-specific Input Arguments (Optional)

Notes

The addMaterial command must be placed at the end of each Material-data definition, as it takes all data defined since the last addMaterial command and define the Material.
