Create an orthotropic engineering constants property set.

Parameters:
  • E1 (float) – Young’s modulus in material 1 direction.

  • E2 (float) – Young’s modulus in material 2 direction.

  • E3 (float) – Young’s modulus in out-of-plane direction.

  • nu12 (float) – Poisson’s ratio \(\nu_{12}\).

  • nu23 (float) – Poisson’s ratio \(\nu_{23}\).

  • nu13 (float) – Poisson’s ratio \(\nu_{13}\).

  • G12 (float) – Shear modulus \(G_{12}\).

  • G23 (float) – Shear modulus \(G_{23}\).

  • G31 (float) – Shear modulus \(G_{31}\).

Returns:

An orthotropic engineering constants property set.

Return type:

Self
