Matplus, a dedicated member of the International Steering Group (ISG) of MMPDS, presents an extended version of the MMPDS database with EDA® — accessible via cloud or on-premises. EDA® is more than a reference database: it combines validated MMPDS design allowables with tools for analysis, compliance, and integration into your engineering workflow.
Design-allowable MMPDS values and consistent material selection across teams and projects.
Faster processing of material inquiries, approvals, and quality management workflows.
Manage complexity in alloying and energy decisions with validated data at your fingertips.
Industry-standard JSON data format and Python-based extensibility — no proprietary lock-in.
Explorative analysis of MMPDS test and simulation data to support informed alloy and temper decisions.
Consolidate and evaluate demanding test data from different sources alongside MMPDS reference values.
Create and fit models for plasticity, fatigue, and damage — ready for export to CAE downstream applications.
Integrate MMPDS reference data, your own test data, and documents into a single source of materials knowledge.
With alloy chemical compositions and corresponding CAS numbers, our extended MMPDS database enables precise substance declarations and compliance with environmental and safety regulations. The EDA® SCR module generates regulated substance reports from bills of materials (BOM) — listing quantities, proportions, and CAS numbers — and can be accessed via a REST interface for PLM and ERP systems.
Matplus structures the MMPDS database into Master Materials and Engineering Materials. The 172 Master Materials aggregate all data of a specific alloy across heat treatment, product form, and dimension variations. The 1,333 Engineering Materials offer condition-specific data grounded in robust statistical analysis. Consistent linking between both levels ensures you never lose track during material research.
A built-in data warehouse within the MMPDS database enables advanced analysis and graphical materials selection. EDA® provides 2D and 3D visualization, tabular comparisons, unit conversion with unit-neutral storage, and multilingual metadata — all stored in an open JSON format without proprietary lock-in.
Our extended MMPDS database integrates with leading CAE and CAD systems including Abaqus, LS-DYNA, Siemens NX, and Catia. The EDA® Material Selector App (MSA) lets engineers assign materials to parts directly in CAD. The Data Exchange module (DX) provides bi-directional interfaces and supports Electronic Certificates of Confirmation (eCoC) — from test data through material model parametrization to CAE export.
Our mission is to augment your material selection capabilities with additional data, tools, and functionalities.
