How to import mesh from abaqus into a static analysis in ANSYS

[andradesilva]

Hi,

I've got an abaqus mesh input file, where each element has different thickness. I would like to do a static analysis in ANSYS WORKBENCH 14 using the mesh file that I already have. I want to mesh my model
with the mesh that I already have coded in a .inp file in abaqus. I want to do it for different geometries. How can I do it for the exact same geometry? And for other geometries? I guess I can populate
any geometry with an already done mesh, just the coordinates of the nodes and the element size will change. Am I correct?


Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
AndradeSilva
