Hi all,
I recently started using V4.3. My model, involving two physics, has three study steps in one study where the solution of previous steps fed to the successive steps as initial conditions. In the steps, different boundary conditions are activated and deactivated using 'Modify physics tree and variables for study step' option. The purpose is to deform the geometry in first step with certain Bc's and apply another loading/boundary conditions on the deformed geometry in the second step. Similarly on the third one.
But, in the second step , the solver starts working on undeformed geometry with the new boundary conditions. The same thing happens in the third step too. Would any one has any idea about this strange thing ?
For illustrative purpose, i have developed a model with simple linear elastic material in structural mechanics module, with two different loading conditions and two study steps, i.e., two stationary solvers. The solution from first step was fed as initial condition to second step. I EXACTLY WANT TO APPLY THE SECOND LOADING (IN SECOND STEP) ON THE DEFORMED GEOMETRY FROM THE FIRST STEP. Please find the attached !
Would someone please help me on this ? Thanks in advance !
