Hi, I am trying to model a sandwich panel using ACP. I am told that in 14.0, in the Engineering Data module, when creating a new material, under the "Physical Properties" group there should be an option for "ply type" that you can drag onto your material and select "woven" or "regular, unidirectional", or "honeycomb core". However, in 14.5, this option does not seem available. Furthermore, in "Engineering Data Sources" there is no library for composite materials, like you'd expect if you had ACP installed. Does anyone know what I am missing?

Thanks in advance,
alexhsia
