Displacements from another model via interpolation function

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello everyone. I would like to use the displacements results from a previous analysis. I have solve a "big model" and I am focusing on the analysis of one part, which is a simple double cantilever beam. I saved the displacements at the edges of the double cantilever beam (from the "big model") on a file 'txt'. I built another separated model of just the cantilever beam and I apply the displacement on the edges using the boundary condition "prescribed displacement" via the interpolation functions. I obtain the same displacement but wrong stress an deformations. Actually, I cannot explain this because I expect that, if the displacement is correct, also stress and deformations should be correct.

Of course the material parameters of the two models are the same.

Thank you for the help.
