User-Defined Materials and Libraries

User-defined materials provide the flexibility needed to design your models and experiments using a combination of existing material properties and properties you define yourself. You can also create your own material database (library) to include materials you use often.

You can also modify and extend existing materials that you load from any of the material libraries. When added to the Component node, the material is a copy of the properties and the material from the library, and you can modify that material’s properties in the same way as a user-defined material.
