LS-Dyna Restart

      Hello community,
      I struggle to perform a LS-Dyna restart in which I would like to add geometry.
      Via the external model I import the dynain file of the LS-Dyna simulation I want to restart.
      To achive that I renamed the dynain file to dynain.k (also tried dynain.dat)
      Vie the mechanical model I want to add geometry.
      I get this error:Conversion Failed. [C:\ANSYSDev\TFSAgent\_work\2\s\CodeDV\ModelConversion\ModelConversionLib\Acmo\AcmoMeshProvider.cpp:80] ElementEnumeratorImpl: No elements
      The error only shows up when the external model is connected.
      Does someone know how to fix that?
      If needed, I will happily provide further information.

      Hi Marco, 

      Replace the P system with LS-DYNA System and then mesh and then attach that system to M. 

      Then it might fix this issue. 

      Cheers, Ram

      Hi Ram,
      I tried this. However, it seems that the error comes from the L system.
      Perhaps it has something to do with the way i exported the dynain file.
      I took inspiration from the "Exporting Data" section in the Ls-Dyna keyword manual:
      $ Keyword Snippet
      $ Do not leave any unintentional empty lines in this editor
      *INTERFACE_SPRINGBACK_LSDYNA
      999,999,3,,,,1
      *SET_PART_LIST_GENERATE 
      999 
      1,99999999
      *END
      Best regards,
      Marco
