MAT2 only applied to 2D elements.

Material Requirements

MAT2

Mathematical

none

Semi-stability

If any eigenvalues of [G] < 0, an error termination will occur.

PARAM,CHECKMAT,NO will disable this error.

Not all zeros

If all eigenvalues of [G] = 0, an error termination will occur.

If any eigenvalue of [G] = 0, a warning is provided.

Consistency

none

Mathematical for composites

After homogenization, if Det[G] = 0, an error termination will occur.
