I did my transient thermal using Mechanical APDL and trying to Import the transient thermal load using workbench to perform static structural analysis.<\/p>\n<p>I was able to import my thermal result from APDL to workbench and see the thermal result without any error.<br \/>so to perform static structural analysis, I pasted the time step from the thermal result as it is a coupled thermal-structural process. But I was not able to implement element kill and activation process in Static Structural analysis too . Should I do it manually or I thought I had it during thermal simulation , i think it should import the same process for structural analysis while importing thermal load and timestep.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/community.ansys.com\/?hashtag\/thermomechanical\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"ps-stream-hashtag\">#thermomechanical<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/community.ansys.com\/?hashtag\/additive\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"ps-stream-hashtag\">#additive<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;manufacturing&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/community.ansys.com\/?hashtag\/DED\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"ps-stream-hashtag\">#DED<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/community.ansys.com\/?hashtag\/finite\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"ps-stream-hashtag\">#finite<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;element modeling&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/community.ansys.com\/?hashtag\/APDL\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"ps-stream-hashtag\">#APDL<\/span><\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/community.ansys.com\/?hashtag\/deformation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"ps-stream-hashtag\">#deformation<\/span><\/a> #distortion #transient #thermal-structrual<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-276368","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-2dmaterialsandmetals-1","topic-tag-AdditiveManufacturingModule-1","topic-tag-Analysisstatic-thermal-static-1"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["185598","50680"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.192.164.18"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["373"],"_edit_lock":["1679671377:70854"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["276368"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["50680","185598"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["276666"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["276666"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2023-03-27 17:01:14"]},"test":"mkalel"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/276368","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/276368\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=276368"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
