Good day every one

I did my training on FEM and mechanical static simulation using one part and assembly with two parts maximum.

I am now working with a larger assembly (13 parts).

1. I use the Structural Model Creation app, which is very effective for setting up meshing for each part (hexa mesh for some parts, tetrahedron mesh for others).

However, when I switch to the Static Study app, I don't know how to use my FEM models and not the new one.

Is it possible to reuse or select my existing FEM model within the Static Study app OR Linear Structural validation app to go ahead with simulation? 

2. What would be the better approach? 

• Mesh each part individually, then import them into the assembly, and finally set up the mechanical scenario and simulation,

or

• Create the full assembly first, apply either global or local meshing, and then set up the mechanical scenario and simulation?

    3. Maybe use Structural scenario/creation and/or Linear Structural validation app?

       But scenario not easy to manage

Thank you
