How can I include a pre-stressed initial state for a 2-way FSI simulation

      The attached document describes how to start an 2-way FSI simulation using a pre-stressed structural model where: 1) The Fluent mesh needs to be generated from the initially deformed geometry 2) New sets of boundary conditions and contacts need to be defined in Mechanical after the pre-stress simulation 3) Some bodies in Mechanical need to be suppressed after the pre-stress simulation Keywords FSI Fluent System Coupling Pre-stress Inistate External model upgeom FE Modeler SpaceClaim
