Shell Property Definition Dialog Box
Use this dialog box to define properties for shells on your model. The properties you define for your shells depend upon whether you are working with a 2D or 3D model, and upon the type of shell you want to simulate.
Homogeneous
Used for 2D and 3D shells
Consists of a single material whose properties do not vary through the thickness of the shell.
Laminate
Used for 3D shells
Consists of one or more materials whose properties may vary through the thickness of the shell.
When you click New on the Shell Properties dialog box, the Shell Property Definition dialog box appears with these items:
Name—Type a name or accept the default name.
Description—Type an optional description.
Property Type—Select Homogeneous, Laminate Layup, or Laminate Stiffness. The items on the dialog box change depending upon your selection.
