Conditions
- Electrical model: Stationary isotropic Ohmic conduction only. The source table does not report permittivity or frequency-dependent electrical properties.
- Material model: Isotropic linear elastic and scalar thermal properties.
- Reference state: The handbook's Room Temperature Properties table; the exact common temperature is not specified.

Result
The assigned domains use the listed material properties in the next solve.
Troubleshooting
Do not extrapolate a constant or tabulated value outside its stated conditions without justification. A material name alone does not establish suitability for your experiment.
