The issue is when a parameter changes and the geometry updates, the mesh looses references to the body selections. To overcome this I made the body a named selection in SpaceClaim and selected the &#8220;Named Selection&#8221; option (instead of Geometry Selection) in ANSYS meshing. However when using a Body of Influence you can only select the body.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>I also receive the following Warning in ANSYS Mesher<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>&#8216;One or more objects have lost scoping attachments during the geometry update.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6032193\/uploads\/attachments\/43967e70-819c-47a3-af5d-a9cb00ab079a\/b2a1668e-b289-41e7-985e-a9ed006eda4e_workbench.jpg?width=690&amp;upscale=false\" alt=\"Parametric Study setup\"><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Parametric study setup<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6032193\/uploads\/attachments\/43967e70-819c-47a3-af5d-a9cb00ab079a\/36f0f044-ed1e-46f0-b7ed-a9ed006ef5fe_initail-mesh.jpg?width=690&amp;upscale=false\" alt=\"Initial mesh setup\"><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Meshing after initial setup<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6032193\/uploads\/attachments\/43967e70-819c-47a3-af5d-a9cb00ab079a\/6c89d6d3-9fca-41ed-be3a-a9ed0070979f_mesh-after-updated-geometry.jpg?width=690&amp;upscale=false\" alt=\"Mesh after updating the geometry with changed parameter.
