Description
Defines a rigid finite-element material, i.e. elements assigned to this material do not deform internally.
Use this material together with PART to create rigid parts that interact with contact, constraints and rigid-body commands while reducing computational cost compared to deformable materials.
Only density ($\rho$) and optional thermal link tid are active fields in this command. The intermediate slots are reserved for compatibility and should be left unchanged.
