  I am trying to complete a 2-way coupled analysis of a composite between Transient Structural and Fluent (2021 R1). The data transfers are temperature from Fluent and displacement from structural. I am using the System Coupling GUI in order to facilitate volumetric temperature transfers. This set up works for non-composite systems, but as soon as I introduce ACP in the structural model I get an error from system coupling:

  Hi Steve, I was able to figure this out. I had to essentially import a solid mesh into ACP and map the plies over this mesh. Once this is done System Coupling is able to run without issue.
