    Hi,

     

    you can use the following:

    -MAT2 for linear, temperature-independent, and anisotropic materials for two-dimensional elements

    -MAT5 defines the thermal material properties for anisotropic materials

    -MAT9 for linear, temperature-independent, and anisotropic materials for solid elements
