About the setting of SS400_mmns.mat in the "Material Directory"

[JSmith_8423751]

I am using Creo Simulate Release 6.0 and Datecode6.0.2.0
 

I would like to confirm the setting of SS400_mmns.mat in the default "Material Directory"

When I open the material definition of SS400, the Young's modulus is set to "216001MPa".

Generally, the Young's modulus of SS400 is often written as "205000-206000MPa", but if it is set to "216001MPa", it is thought that there will be some difference in the deflection of the analysis results.

Is there any reason for the setting value of "216001MPa" above?

Also, could you please provide me with any reference material that shows the Young's modulus as "216001MPa"?

デフォルトの「材料ディレクトリ」(Material Directory) 内にある 
SS400_mmns.matの設定について確認したいのですが 

SS400の材料定義を開くとヤング率が「216001MPa」と設定されています 
一般的にSS400のヤング率は「205000～206000MPa」と表記されていることが多いのですが 
「216001MPa」の設定だと解析結果のたわみに多少差異が出ると考えられます 

上記の「216001MPa」の設定値には何か理由があるのでしょうか？ 
また、ヤング率が「216001MPa」となる参考資料があればご提供願えませんでしょうか？

My guess is that the SS400 material is kind of an "average" or "approximate" set of properties, since it doesn't refer to any specific alloy. You're getting values that are "typical" for that series of stainless steels. You'd likely (I hope) get property values more accurate if you use a specific alloy, like 440, 416, 410, etc.

When I do a quick search, I find that most sites seem to report 200GPa for series 400 stainless steel. So, really, I don't see where the 216GPa value you are seeing is coming from, either.
