| Line 1 (2I5) | |
|---|---|
| NTEMP | number of temperatures at which material data are given |
| IENTH | = 1 to use the enthalpy formulation of the heat problem |
| = 0 to use the classical formulation of the heat problem | |
Repeat NTEMP times the definition of those parameters.

| E | YOUNG's elastic modulus at temperature T |
| ANU | POISSON's ratio at temperature T |
| ALPHA | thermal expansion coefficient at temperature T |
Note that these values are tangent values (and not secant values).

6 for 3D state
4 for the other cases
The stresses are the components of CAUCHY stress tensor in global (X,Y,Z) coordinates.
For the 3-D state:
| SIG(1) | $\sigma_{xx}$ |
| SIG(2) | $\sigma_{yy}$ |
| SIG(3) | $\sigma_{zz}$ |
| SIG(4) | $\sigma_{xy}$ |
| SIG(5) | $\sigma_{xz}$ |
| SIG(6) | $\sigma_{yz}$ |
For the other cases:
| SIG(1) | $\sigma_{xx}$ |
| SIG(2) | $\sigma_{yy}$ |
| SIG(3) | $\sigma_{xy}$ |
| SIG(4) | $\sigma_{zz}$ |
