    The document provides steps to model composites using HyperLaminate in HyperMesh: 1. Create an orthotropic material with the given properties and add it to the material tree. 2. Create a composite property (PCOMP) with the specified stacking sequence and ply thickness. 3. Define an in-plane load case and apply it to the laminate. 4. Calculate the laminate properties and review the results, including stiffness matrix, mid-plane properties, and principal/invariant results.
