Therefore, I used the geometry and settings as seen below. However, when measuring total deflection the sensors don&#8217;t bend with the CFRP panel. For me, it seems as if they are not a part of the sandwich structure. Does anyone know how to embed sensors with different element sets than the prepreg plies in a CFRP panel?&nbsp;I want those sensors in between layer 2 &#8211; 3 and 4 &#8211; 5 respectively.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thank you very much!&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/12\/04-12-2024-1733345806-Geometry.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"515\" height=\"249\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/12\/04-12-2024-1733345906-Mechanical.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"520\" height=\"277\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/12\/04-12-2024-1733345870-ACP Pre Setup.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"519\" height=\"267\" \/>&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-396327","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-acp-compositematerials-1","topic-tag-ansysworkbench-ansys-staticstructural","topic-tag-acp-pre"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_forum_id":["27796"],"_bbp_topic_id":["396327"],"_bbp_subscription":["437084","490437"],"_bbp_author_ip":["31.205.78.110"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["396679"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["396679"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-12-07 21:34:57"],"_bbp_reply_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":["0"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_engagement":["437084","490437"],"_btv_view_count":["136"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_notification_enabled":["437084"]},"test":"s22015072mail-glyndwr-ac-uk"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/396327","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\/396327\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=396327"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
