RCAIDE.Library.Attributes.Materials

Materials

This module provides material handling capabilities for RCAIDE. It includes classes for managing different types of materials and their physical properties, with implementations for various structural and aerospace materials including:

• Metals (Aluminum, Steel, Nickel, Titanium, Magnesium)

• Composites (Unidirectional and Bidirectional Carbon Fiber, Carbon Fiber Honeycomb)

• Polymers (Epoxy, Polyetherimide, Acrylic)

• Surface Treatments (Paint)

The Solid class serves as the base class for all material implementations.
