Hello to all forum,
There is some one that can said me the command to simulate the plastic material or somthing to similar as Nylon, Delrin...
In some tutorial I see that somethimes the Nylon or other material are treated are steel using for example the command:

*ELASTIC, TYPE = ISOTROPIC
... ,... ,...
*PLASTIC
... ,... ,...
... ,... ,...

using an average young's moduls.
There is a more accurate way.

Kind regards
Jacopo
