ANSYS Engineering Data

Posted: 12 Mar 2011 01:36 PM PST

Hello,

I will work on a project as a student in my university. I need to perform some ANSYS analyses with some polymers. As you know, I need to enter the mechanical properties of the material into ANSYS.

I found the website matweb.com and look for the material "165 H Polystyrene"
I could enter only the Density, Isotropic Elasticity, Tensile Ultimate Strength. I couldn't find where to enter the other values (mechanical properties). So, now I am not sure if these 3 properties are enough for a stress analysis. I know that matweb.com has a premium membership and it gives an Ansys ready engineering data file. Has anyone tried that? Or can anyone tell me that if these three properties are enough? I want to see what the premium membership available file has but the membership is $100/year (which is a little too much for this one time project)

thank you
