Hey guys, I need to know how to

Hey guys, I need to know how to

(OP)
Hey guys,

I need to know how to create a new geometry for a 'static structural' analysis based on the solution geometry created by using the shape optimization tool.
The shape optimization tool created a new geometry. The result generated is a shape, with sections removed that have a density of zero. This new geometry is based on the mesh used for the analysis, but with sections removed. I need to make this solution geometry the new geometry in a new "static structural analysis".
I need an answer in two weeks. Please help me. I would appreciate it, if somebody tell me how to solve this problem.

RE: Hey guys, I need to know how to

You ought to be able to export the resultant geometry and save as a file (this step can be time consuming), then import said file into whatever geometry editor you're using in the future simulation. The geometry typically requires a bit of cleanup and smoothing beforehand, though.
