Can you define custom materials in CST Studio Suite?
In the Navigation Tree, right-click the ‘materials’ folder, then click ‘new material.’ Specify the electromagnetic properties of the material, such as permittivity, permeability, and conductivity. It’s also possible to define more complex materials to account for, e.g., anisotropic, dispersive, and non-linear material properties either directly in CST or by importing external files.
For EM-thermal-mechanical simulations, thermal and mechanical properties also need to be specified, including, e.g., thermal conductivity, thermal expansion coefficient, Young’s modulus, and Poisson’s ratio.
