Re: 2D Orthotropic elasticity matrix
As Kevin wrote there is no orthotropic material models in plate and shell solver. There could be, just hasn't been any projects to push this. -Peter

Re: 2D Orthotropic elasticity matrix
Thanks, that is what I saw in the code, but the manuals imply there might be. Also, the solvers read the matrix input of Youngs Modulus without error or reporting that it is not supported, I suppose that is because they use the standard input function call.
Re: 2D Orthotropic elasticity matrix
Thanks for the definitive answer, I also looked and only found perforations code, no general stiffness matrix. Manual hints that both are supported though.

Re: 2D Orthotropic elasticity matrix
I was able to copy the Smitc.F90 solver to my working directory renamed
MySmitc.F90
added a subroutine, and forced the code to call it. I hard coded the Ematrix, and received the correct solution.
I then modified the E22 and E33 terms and the answer changed accordingly.
I copied the perforated subroutine, but hard coded the Ematrix instead of letting the original code calculate it.
Not an ideal solution, but seems to work.

Re: 2D Orthotropic elasticity matrix
Sounds like it wouldnt be too much effort to add the stiffness matrix input to the next version. (Hint, hint )
