# Midas NFX Material and Composite Models
|
||||
|
||||
## Definition
|
||||
|
||||
The NFX material-model thread covers the elastic, nonlinear, plastic, hyperelastic, thermal, viscoelastic, laminated-composite, and composite-failure behavior described in the [[Midas-NFX-Analysis-Manual|Midas NFX Analysis Manual]].
|
||||
|
||||
## Material Families
|
||||
|
||||
The manual includes isotropic, orthotropic, anisotropic, and rigid elastic materials; nonlinear elastic material behavior; plastic material properties; hyperelastic behavior; thermal conductivity properties; age-independent and age-dependent viscoelasticity; and temperature-dependent material properties.
|
||||
|
||||
## Composite Laminate Theory
|
||||
|
||||
For laminated composites, the source gives the classic membrane-bending relation
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
{N, M} = [[A, B], [B, D]] {epsilon_0, kappa}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
where `A`, `B`, and `D` represent in-plane, coupling, and bending stiffness. The manual also includes transverse shear stiffness and thermal expansion terms for average temperature change and through-thickness temperature gradient.
|
||||
|
||||
## Composite Failure
|
||||
|
||||
The composite failure section covers maximum stress, maximum strain, Tsai-Hill, Hoffman, Tsai-Wu, and NASA LaRC02 criteria. The output concepts include finite-element failure index, failure index, and strength ratio.
|
||||
|
||||
## Solver Development Use
|
||||
|
||||
For a custom solver, this page points to two implementation layers: constitutive integration at integration points and laminate section integration through thickness. Composite failure should be treated as a postprocessing or damage-initiation contract unless the solver explicitly implements degradation, because a failure index alone does not define stiffness loss.
|
||||
|
||||
## Connections
|
||||
|
||||
- [[Finite Element Plasticity]] and [[Abaqus Constitutive Integration]] cover path-dependent material updates.
|
||||
- [[Abaqus Material Library and Data Definition]] and [[Abaqus Progressive Damage and Failure]] provide sibling commercial material/failure references.
|
||||
- [[Midas FEA Concrete Cracking and Material Models]] is a MIDAS sibling focused on civil concrete and interface material behavior.
