Hi everyone,

I am looking to transfer my nodal solution field (displacement) from one instance to another instance (both have identical mesh/geometry). The instance 1 is computed in analysis step 1 (instance 2 is deactivated), the instance 2 is computed in analysis step 2 (instance 1 is deactivated). So between these two steps, I am transfering the solution field. I am doing this through URDFIL subroutine, reading the .fil file (displacement solution of instance 1) and applying this as displacement boundary conditions to the instance 2. But this is computationally demanding since I have to read the incremental nodal solution from the .fil file after each load increment. Is there another way of doing this? I know there is the predefined field option, but this requires the restart of the analysis?

Thank you!
