So Any idea that can help me to import my geometry only without even the mesh to Ansys APDL, then in APDL I set up the model for solving and analysis. I tried to use the<strong> Write Input File<\/strong> command and I faced the following issues: <\/p>\n<p><strong>1-<\/strong> When I open the geometry in APDL it only shows the nodes only. <\/p>\n<p><strong>2-<\/strong> The file I opened it appears with a generated mesh which I don&#039;t want. <\/p>\n<p><strong>3- <\/strong>I used the Commands <strong>ALLS and EPLOT<\/strong> to show my geometry Area but in APDL It says there is no area Identified.<\/p>\n<p>I need Only the WB Mechanical to create the FEM, then port it over to MAPDL to set up the model for solving. I have attached the relevant photos of my problem. <\/p>\n<p>Any help Will be much appreciated.<\/p>\n<div data-embedjson=\"{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6032193\/uploads\/KY0JXQXQSJEL\/apdl-errors.zip&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;APDL ERRORS.zip&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;application\/x-zip-compressed&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:438241,&quot;embedType&quot;:&quot;file&quot;}\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/us.v-cdn.net\/6032193\/uploads\/KY0JXQXQSJEL\/apdl-errors.zip\" download aria-label=\"APDL ERRORS.zip\"><br \/>\nAPDL ERRORS.zip<br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-51345","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-mechanical-apdl"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_old_topic_id":["23609"],"_bbp_old_topic_author_name_id":["Anonymous"],"_bbp_old_is_topic_anonymous_id":["false"],"_bbp_old_closed_status_id":["publish"],"_bbp_author_ip":["\u02b9?I"],"_bbp_old_sticky_status_id":["normal"],"_bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["3348"],"_bbp_subscription":["252861"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["51345"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["88","178739"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["3"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["141467"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["141467"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2021-02-07 16:37:38"]},"test":"abdulsalam"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/51345","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\/51345\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51345"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
