E2 (float) – Young’s modulus in material 2 direction.
E3 (float) – Young’s modulus in out-of-plane direction.
nu12 (float) – Poisson’s ratio $ν_{12}$ .
nu23 (float) – Poisson’s ratio $ν_{23}$ .
nu13 (float) – Poisson’s ratio $ν_{13}$ .
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
