      Hello everyone,

      I am trying to create a mesh and export it via Ansys LS-Dyna Workbench in LS-Prepost by using the context tab and the option "Write Input Files..". However, each time that I am exporting the file, my geometry and the mesh are always in mm. Is it possible to scale it for example to meters? If yes, how?

      Thanks a lot in advance for your answers.

      You can specify units system in details of analysis settings and then write the input file
