Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As ICWMaterial
C# 
public interface ICWMaterial
C++/CLI 
public interface class ICWMaterial

Example

Remarks

A number of material models are available for nonlinear studies. Material properties can be defined by selecting a material from a library or defining material properties manually.
