Hello,
I would like to automatically transfer the force obtained from a joint force probe in a simulation block to another block model as force input. I can't perform a submodel because I have something like a pinned connection so in the first model i have a male component connected to grond while in the second model i have a female component moved by an input force.
Could you suggest me an efficient way to connect these models without insert every time the reaction forces in the second model? Excel, apdl etc.?
Thank you very much

Can't really visualise what you are asking, but if they share a common interface, say a face. Then you can interpolate the resulting displacement field of the first model onto the second model.
