Material undifined and not able to simulate

[130027LSA2Z]

I am currently in need of simulating paper structures and I am unable to use this material. I have tried to solve this problem by going go the Styles and Standards tab, however I am unable to resolve any of my problems.

Ps. I am extremely new to any simulation applications.

Hi @130027LSA2Z 

Thanks for posting! No worries on being new, that is what we are here for. Unfortunately though, I am not sure what you are trying to do. Can you give more details? Screenshots, links to webpages, etc on what you are trying to do.

Thanks,

James

I am referring to the warning sign next to paper. If I select "ok" it prompts me with a message saying: "One or more materials are set to a material style using insufficient values. The study can't be run in such a state. Accept?"

I am trying to meet these requirements but I am unable to  because of my limited knowledge.

Hi @130027LSA2Z 

Not all of the materials in the Inventor Library have all the required engineering material properties....

But you're also on the wrong forum. That is Inventor Stress Analysis you are using. Nastran is a different environment within Inventor.

I'll see about moving your post.

Thanks,

James

Hi! It looks like the custom material style "Paper" may have some properties missing or the property values are wrong. Please share an example part containing this style. I would like to take a closer look.

Many thanks!
