Hi, All

I would like to export a deformed geometry from static structural to do another simulation. But I don't know how to export the resultant stress or strain with the deformed feature. Does anybody know how to do it?

Hi Jirong,

You don't export, you just do the next simulation at the end of the first simulation, that means you have a two-step analysis.  Step 1 has the load that created the deformed geometry, step 2 is the next simulation.

Thank you for your reply. I have already got this step1 deformed result.  how can I insert the new analysis from here?

should I start step2 like this? How to make sure the stress and strain also are transferred to step2?

Not like that. Delete the second Static Structural analysis system.

Open the Model on system H.

In Mechanical, click on Analysis Settings.

Where it says Number of Steps and has a 1, type a 2.  That's it.

Fair enough. Thank you very much!!
