We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hello,

thank you for this hint, that sounds promising to me. But I could solve it in another way: I got the information that the cdb file was created in the past with the classis Ansys (Ansys Mechanical apdl). So I tried to import the file with this programm. Now there are no "geometry" objects that were generated by Ansys workbench with the import of the cdb file.

In this program I am able to select individual elements for output mass information independent of there contribution to some composite layer. So by executing the code I shared in the link above in Ansys classic I could solve my problem.

Anyway thank you for your reply.
