I would like to know how to set the deformed part to its initial state and combine other parts with the slits in the deformed shape.

Hi,
One method is to use the UPCOORD command. You can also export the deformed germetry in CDB format and can import in subsequent analysis. This will import the deformed geometry. This can be done using APDL commands:
/post1
set, last
upcoord, 1
finish
/prep7
cdwrite, db, 'deformed', cdb

This will create a file named deformed.cdb in the solver files directory, which can be accessed by right clicking the solution tree.


The cdb file can be imported using the External model component system:


Hope this helps,

I'm sorry for the late reply.　But I was able to solve this problem. 
Thank you!
