Importing Mechanical Apdl geometry in Ansys Workbench

AI Thread Summary
To import geometry from Mechanical APDL into ANSYS Workbench, users can utilize a "Command" object to input APDL code directly. The geometry, originally created in the APDL GUI, can be replicated by copying commands from a log file. This method allows for flexibility in modifying geometry and meshing within Workbench. Users are encouraged to consult tutorials on integrating APDL commands into Workbench for guidance. This approach facilitates seamless transitions between the two platforms while maintaining control over geometry changes.

hi.. i want to import only the geometry defined in mechanical apdl into ansys workbench so that i want to have the freedom to change the geometry and meshing whenever i want to. thankyou

How is the geometry constructed in APDL? Have you considered just created a "Command" object in Workbench and copying the APDL code in there?
 
The geometry was once created in GUI in Mechanical APDL and after that it was written in log file which is a .txt format. After that every time I want to recreate the geometry, I just put in those commands in command section and I get the same geometry. Can I do it in ANSYS Workbench as well?
 
Yes, I want to do it. Use the code that I use in APDL to model it in Workbench but i don't know how to use that coding in Workbench.
 

Thread 'Space Stuff and Launch Info'

Due to the constant never ending supply of "cool stuff" happening in Aerospace these days I'm creating this thread to consolidate posts every time something new comes along. Please feel free to add random information if its relevant. So to start things off here is the SpaceX Dragon launch coming up shortly, I'll be following up afterwards to see how it all goes. :smile: https://blogs.nasa.gov/spacex/
