    If you must assign properties for density and specific heat, please see the code lines below. It is a good practice to check if the material already exists before creating a new one.

    if not ipk.materials.checkifmaterialexists("matname"):
    mat = ipk.materials.add_material("matname")
    mat.thermal_conductivity = "400"
    mat.mass_density = "8000"
    mat.specific_heat = "700"
