Dear all,

I am a bit new to COMSOL. So, i have a question regarding the coupling of different analysis.

I have developed a transient 3D thermal model for 3D printing and did the thermal analysis.

Now, my next step is to do develop a Mechanical Model also. So i am trying to develop a Thermo-mechanical Model for 3D Printing.

I tried to do a transient fully coupled Thermo-mechanical model. But it takes a lot of time.

So, the idea is, that i want to solve Thermal analysis first and save its thermal history for each time step. And then import these solution as a thermal load for the Mechanical Analysis.

Is it possible to do this in COMSOL and if yes, how can i do that ?

Thanks in advance for your response.

Regards Vaibhav
