🐞 Description of the bug

When trying to make use of operator dpf.Operator("composite::short_fiber_failure_criterion_evaluator"), I get an error message related to one material in Engineering Data that it is not related to short fibre material: Error does not pop up if material is deleted from Engineering Data. @janvonrickenbach & @FedericoNegri FYI

📝 Steps to reproduce

This model comes from a customer, I can share it internally.

Hi @jviqueg Thanks for the report. This error should only appear if the rst file contains a material that is not present in the engineering data xml file. It's strange then that the problem can be resolved by removing the material from the engineering data xml file. Could you share the project with me so I can have a look?

[janvonrickenbach]

The script loaded the wrong Engineering data file (the one from the engineering data system) which does not have the transfer ids assigned. The material data always has to be read from the MatML.xml file from the solver files directory.
