DVMREL1
Bulk Data Entry Linearly relates a design variable to an analysis model material property using the equation:
Format
| (1) | (2) | (3) | (4) | (5) | (6) | (7) | (8) | (9) | (10) | 
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DVMREL1 | ID | TYPE | MID | MPNAME/ FID | C0 | ||||
| DVID1 | COEF1 | DVID2 | COEF2 | etc. | 
Example 1
To relate the Damping Coefficient value on a MAT1 card (field 9)
                to Design Variable 5.
        | (1) | (2) | (3) | (4) | (5) | (6) | (7) | (8) | (9) | (10) | 
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DVMREL1 | 17 | MAT1 | 22 | 9 | 0.0 | ||||
| 5 | 1.0 | 
Example 2
This example is the same as Example 1, except that it defines MPNAME
                in place of FID.

Definitions
| Field | Contents | SI Unit Example | 
|---|---|---|
| ID | Relationship
                                identification number. ID must be unique with respect to other
                                    DVMREL1 cards. No default (Integer > 0) | |
| TYPE | Material type to be
                                related (MAT1, MAT2, MAT4, MAT5, MAT8, MAT9, or MAT9OR). No default (Character) | |
| MID | Material identification
                                    number. No default (Integer > 0) | |
| MPNAME/FID | Material property name,
                                such as "E" or "RHO" (as in the documentation of the material Bulk
                                Data Entries), or field number on a material Bulk Data Entry. No default (Character or Integer > 0) | |
| C0 | Constant in relationship
                                    equation. Default = 0.0 (Real) | |
| DVIDi | DESVAR
                                    ID. No default (Integer > 0) | |
| COEFi | Coefficient in
                                relationship equation. Default = 1.0 (Real) |
