Exporting Deformed Mesh of Shell Model

PaulPaul
Hello,

I am trying to export a deformed mesh, and I am having some difficulty. When I run the simulation on a solid body I can export the deformed mesh without an issue, but if I run my simulation as a shell model, I get the error below, and the deformed mesh does not export properly. (Image of deformed result and failed export are attached)

Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Thanks for the help,
Paul

    yeah it doesn't work for ccx expanded shell to solid

    Yea, it's because of the solids like prop_design said. You can get the solution as shells though by adding this

    *NODE FILE, OUTPUT=2D

    in CCX -> custom step contents.

    How did I miss that one all these years?!
