Hi,
I am doing PMSM motor simulation using ELMER but having difficulty in defining the material properties.

I want to define material properties using .txt file. I have got values of the BH curve (for iron). How can I use the data file (BH.txt) to define the BH curve of Iron.

Any suggestion/help most welcome. The .sif file and the BH.txt file is attached here.

See the material 2 in SIF file. if i run this file i get error "ERROR:: SectionContents: Problem reading real keyword: h-b curve: include bh.txt"
