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”.

Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.
