Material Designer includes new features and enhancements at Release 2024 R2 in the following areas:
In the Uniaxial Test Data dialog, you can now directly import the experimental stress-strain curves from a file. On import, the curve is split into its elastic and plastic portions by automatically identifying the Young’s modulus and yield point. The new Experimental Data Import Plot enables you to compare the original curve versus the imported one and review the fitting quality. For more information, see Experimental Data (for Short Fiber Models) in the Material Designer User's Guide and Experimental Data in the Short Fiber Composites Guide.
General Material Designer and release-specific limitations can be found in Known Limitations in the Material Designer User's Guide.
