Hello,

How can I export the displacement from my static structural analysis and set them in the harmonic analysis as boundary conditions for the entire geometry.

If there is an APDL command for this, please let me know.

Thank you.

Hi,

Did you try dragging and droping the boundary condition from one Analysis type to the other one?

Hello Ashish,

Thank you so much for your response.

Let me rephrase my question.

I have conducted a Modal Analysis for a structure and I want to export a Mode Shape and supply it to the Harmonic Analysis with a defined Amplitude.

Thank you.

Thanks for the clarification. I think you want to use modal analysis to perform harmonic analysis. Please see if the following link helps you: Performing Mode Superposition Harmonic Analysis - Lesson 1 - ANSYS Innovation Courses

Hello Ashish,

I have gone through this self learning module. 

Please read my question again.

I am looking to extract the mode shape displacement at each nodal location from the modal analysis and then supply those displacement to the Ansys harmonic analysis solver as my boundary conditions with a prescribed amplitude for the displacement. 

This is not covered in the self learning module. Therefore the question.

Please let me know if you could help with this.

Thank you.
