Review the following known issues and limitations:
Upon initiating a solve, the Sinter Material object generates an APDL script corresponding to the APDL sinter material. The Sinter Material object is a standalone implementation that is currently not integrated into Engineering Data.
Certain features of the APDL nonlinear material are accessible only with APDL scripting. For such features, we recommend you specify the material assignment via APDL commands (TB, SINT).
Anisotropic shrinkage (TB, SINT,,,,ANICONST)
Time step control based on maximum viscous strain increment (CUTCONTROL, VSLIMIT)
Relatively new users who are less familiar with APDL scripting for material assignments can use the wizard to generate the ds.dat input file and use it as a reference.
