spring back of a bent beam in an enclosed space.

spring back of a bent beam in an enclosed space.

(OP)
Hello everyone,
I have this problem where I want to bend a beam as a first step. In the second step i want to introduce this bent beam in an enclosed region e.g. a cylindrical region and i want to see how this beam tries to come to its original position while in contact with its constraining cylindrical environment.
I was trying to solve this similar to the way we solve multiphysics problems in ansys. However Ansys does not allow me to transfer data from one static structural module to another.
Any insight on this problem will be highly appreciated.

Thanks!
