Hello my friends.

I am now working in ANSYS to do the thermal and mechanical analyses of a welding process.
My question is, do I need to use the element Birth-Death feature to do the simulation?
Should I use it in which part, thermal, structural or both? Why?
How the result will differ if I use or not use it?

Many thanks.
