Subject: Re: SubStructuring + All results in one RST

Sorry Ravi,

I forgot the most important command of all: DESOL. Now, this
one allows you to modify the results portion of the ANSYS database.

But first, I would try creating load case files that you could
read in the "Global" database. The only thing I'm not too sure
about is how ANSYS will behave when you read in results for
a section only. When you read in the results for the 2nd submodel
in the "Global" database, will ANSYS erase the ones in memory
( for the 1st submodel ) or simply append to it.

This is the reason why you should keep the DESOL command in mind
should Plan A fail.

Best regards,
