Name

ID
Enter a unique ID.
Card Image
A predefined type which describes the general form of the element that
the property can be applied to. The property type is chosen from the
Card Image drop-down menu.
Note: The property type
determines the property parameters so the Input button remains
inactive until a property type is selected.
Material
Assign material models to the property. The number of materials required
depends on the element cross-section. For example, a layered
cross-section can contain up to four materials. In these cases, you must
enter a material in the first data cell. A material may be chosen from
the drop-down menus located in the material field. These lists contain
all predefined models which apply to the current property type.
