Export Displacement Geometry

Is is possible to export the geometry of a nonlinear static displacement simulation? In other words, Can Simscale export a model based on the resulting deformation of a simulation?

I have a rubber part with features that make the way it deforms hard to approximate and it is near a potential interference when installed in its application. Adding this additional clearance check geometry results in a huge number of elements added to the mesh and ratcheting up of CH use for zero additional useful computing (elements with no appreciable stress or relevance to the study).

It would be very helpful to run a displacement study on the rubber part by itself and then import the deformed geometry back into CAD to check for interferences.

Hello aa2b22da44c348
thanks for reaching out to us here in the forum.

please have a look at this article about your question.

Best regards
