Hi @andresuriegas!

Not every parameter given in the table you posted can be defined inside the workbench. You either have to find a workaround or define the material behaviour with some experimental data which can be uploaded as a table. For that please have a look at this page:

- **[Defining Elastoplatic Material Example](https://www.simscale.com/forum/t/defining-elastoplastic-material/22595)**

- **[Doc - Table Upload](https://www.simscale.com/docs/content/simulation/model/tables.html?highlight=upload)**

Materials in general can be defined according to this documentation page: **[Materials in SimScale](https://www.simscale.com/docs/content/simulation/model/materials.html)**

If you think that there should be some more input parameter available in the material definition feel free to post your ideas and wishes in the **[Vote For Features](https://www.simscale.com/forum/c/feedback/feature-requests)** section of this forum.

Also tagging @rszoeke here as he might give some more information about a workaround possible in this case.

Cheers!

Jousef
