PID#

Property identification number.

No default (Integer > 0)

CE1, CE2

Viscous damping values for extension in units of force per unit velocity.

No default (Real)

Comments

1.Viscous properties are material independent; in particular, they are temperature independent.
2.One or two viscous element properties may be defined on a single entry.
3.This card is represented as a property in HyperMesh.
