nWe can read in multiple CDB files. So you can write a CDB for one of the DB?s. Resume the other, then read in the CDB to combine the two models. nThere is a numbering offset command, NUMOFF, that goes along with the CDWRITE command. This was you can offset the node/element/etc numbering of the CDB so that it does not conflict with the existing FEM in the DB. Please review the following help section, then maybe practice with two simple test models so that you can easily inspect the combined model.n12.1. Combining Models (ansys.com)n
