    Hello,

     

    it depends from the solver (Hypermesh->Preferences->User profile).

     

    As example for Optistruct / Nastran you have to create two properties and assign the different materials to the properties. Then assign the different properties to the components.

    As example for LS-Dyna you can assign properties and material indepentent to the components, but it isn't possible for Optistruct / Nastran.

     

    Regards,

    Mario
