Hi, as linked paper suggests advanced material property is required to simulate 3d-printed parts under pressure(+/-).
to clarify it suggests making tensile samples in vertical , flat , on edge , and 10 degrees (for shear prop.) positions. i did make similar samples plus a compression saplme and i did run standard tests now, how do i can insert these data in Abaqus properly?

This article mentions orthotropic linear elasticity. In Abaqus you can select orthotropy for elastic behavior and provide material constants in all three directions. Full anisotropy is also available if you want to use it.
