Generate Model with MDL: Material
► Example from Introduction:
► Define an orthotropic stress analysis material 1 for each layer of MITC shell elements. Define a
second material of type LAMINATE.
► The shell element then gets the material reference 2 (the LAMINATE material), which in its turn
references the layer material.
