Hi Mihuel,

Thanks for reminding us. 
Does this option suit you to create the parameters of the thickness in the mechanical, please let me know.

Hi Sampat Kumar, Thank you for rescueing my question!

Well, what you recommend is the way I took so far but I just wondered whether there is an specific approach to simulate sheetmetal parts considering that in the their dedicated SpaceClaim tab, they are built as solid bodies (i.e. with no need to turn them into midsurface bodies), as well as to be able to account for their own features (bends, beams/ribs/dimples, gussets,…) and characteristics (planar and normal anisotropy, springback, eventual thinnings,...)?

Anyway, if your option is the only way to go about it, a confirmation will also be welcome!...

Hello Miguel,

I will try to find another way as you mention a video link and will confirm you soon. I have also asked Devendra to look into this issue. 

Thanks,
Sampat
