About own material model

[xibaiw]

Hello Mr.Willberg and Mr.Hesse, I've been trying to add a new material model to my PeriLab computations. I wrote a jl file and placed it in the src\Models\Material directory as per the documentation, but when I run the program, it shows that my model wasn't recognized. Could it be that I placed the file in the wrong location?

Hi @xibaiw, in regard to Material Models you will need to copy the material_template.jl or the correspondence_template.jl, depending on your use case. The new file needs to be moved either into src/Models/Material/Material_Models/BondBased, .../Ordinary or .../Correspondence.
If the documentation is unclear here, you are welcome to make a PR ;)

In addition. You have to rename the module and give it a name the function correspondence_name() or material_name() respectively. If it is correspondence, please make sure, that your material name is Correspondence ''your mat''

ok, I'll try it again. Maybe a short video would be helpful in the documentation.
