  Hello, I'm Salvatore Alessi, Technical Director of the Formula SAE Team Apex Corse at the University of Palermo.
  We have conducted CFD analyses on the wing appendages that we are designing for our car. We would now like to use these results to perform a structural analysis.
  How can we approach this? Is there a method to directly use the results obtained from CFD?

  Hello,
  Try exporting (in a .txt or .csv file format) the data, say temperature data for nodes (with x,y and z coordinates) and try importing this data into External Data. This External Data Module can be linked to the Mechanical Analysis system.
