How to assign element orientation for orthotropic material property for 3d solid element?

Sathish Balakrishnan

I have orthotrophic material properties for stator

When i have to rotate my stator 90 degrees

How do i use same material properties defined earlier by creating CSYS and assign material properties based on element orientation ?

Thank you

the easiest way to assign material direction to solids, is using the CORDM in the PSOLID property, and assign a local coordinate system.
