Hi,
I have modeled a kind of soft tissue with shell element, S4, as an orthotropic material. And I assigned material properties, Young’s modulus(Ex and Ey) and Poisson's ratio and ... in global system. Now I should change the model and for each elements assign Ex and Ey and ... along their edges.
I really appreciate to help me know how assign Young’s modulus along the edges of elements locally.
