What is an AMAT file

AMAT files mostly belong to MATLAB. The AMAT file is a data file that comes in two distinct forms. One form is an ASCII Matrix File produced by MATLAB. It holds numerical arrays in text format (or sometimes in binary) and is used in computations and analysis.
Another form is a Material Properties File used by simulation tools like CST Studio Suite. This variant stores engineering parameters – for example, density and elasticity – that are essential for simulation work.
  • MATLAB variant: Contains matrix data. Open it with MATLAB or a text editor if it is plain text. More details are available on the MathWorks page.
  • Simulation variant: Contains material properties. Open it with the simulation software that created it, such as CST Studio Suite. Additional info can be found at the CST Studio Suite page.
  • FilExt.com tip: Check the file header to determine its structure before attempting to edit or convert it.

    How do you open AMAT files?

    You need a suitable software like MATLAB to open an AMAT file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your AMAT file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a AMAT file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

    How to solve problems with AMAT files

    • Associate the AMAT file extension with the correct application.
    • Update your software that should actually open data files. Because only the current version supports the latest AMAT file format. Search, therefore, e.g. on the manufacturer website after an available MATLAB update.
    • To make sure that your AMAT file is not corrupted or virus-infected, get the file again and scan it with Google's virustotal.com.
