why i got different geometry shape in ABAQUS viewer / import part

Submitted by cclcjp on

Hi everyone,

I was trying to export a deformed geometry from ABAQUS. So, I chose a method found online which is using CAE to import the ODB file, i.e. File -- Import -- Part -- File Filter -- Output Database option and specify the deformed shape and then save it as an input file. 

However, what I got by importing the ODB is different with that shown in the simulation result. Could anyone tell me why is that? And How could I get a correct deformed geometry.  

cheers
