Hello,

Thank you for your response. However, I might not have explained myself clearly. What I need is to transfer the pore pressure within the soil to calculate the effective stress.

In ANSYS Fluent, I created a porous zone, and I would like to transfer the pore pressure from that zone to the corresponding volume in ANSYS Mechanical to calculate the effective stress.

Could you please clarify which command or feature I should use within the "Insert" menu of Static Structural to achieve this?

When I attempt to transfer the pressure data, I only obtain the pressure on the surface, so I believe I might be missing a step.

Thank you in advance for your help.
