nonlinear statics on a previously deformed model
nonlinear statics on a previously deformed model
(OP)
Hello,
Is it possible to save a deformed model from a nonlinear statics analysis so that subsequent analysis can be performed on it with different loading? The loading differs in magnitude, direction and position. Failing this, is there a way to schedule loading so that one set is applied after another?
Thank you for your help.
Peter.

I'm not sure what software you're using, but you can do what you want with ANSYS. You can do it by a RESTART or creating Load Steps, look in the help for these. I'm not sure how other FEA programs do this.
Hope this helps,
Marc
