My Comfort Zone is in APDL. But I have not found a way to create an arbitrary folded geometry in APDL. Spline curves and its displacement to create areas do not work since some other types of awl will be used and there is no symmetry. Therefore, I planned to export the results of the structural problem, hopping for finding a method to create an IGES file of the deformed area by using a third party software, and import back to APDL to construct the second model.<br \/>\n2. I need the deformed geometry! The second model that is based on the deformed geometry is very complex, and requires applying several boundary conditions on the deformed geometry. Certainly, I can compile the thousands of small areas that you can see in the figure and, later, apply the boundary conditions on the \u00d4\u00c7\u00a3component\u00d4\u00c7\u00d8, but it becomes very slow and that could be the last alternative. <br \/>\nOn the other hand, I have found that there is a powerful tool in SpaceClaim, called \u00d4\u00c7\u00a3reverse engineering\u00d4\u00c7\u00d8, but it requires a good expertise skill to obtain acceptable results. <br \/>\nThanks again, Aniket.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-196034","reply","type-reply","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 4.9.10 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Aniket, thanks a lot for your interest!
