    Do you mean:

    - you have a mesh model named A

    - you perform a stamping analysis, and got result as mesh B

    - now you want to take thickness values in B and apply again to A, don't you?

    Hi,

    Try invoke pulldown menu Mesh>Assign> Midmesh Thickness

    at 'Input' => select 'From file'

    at 'Solid geom/mesh:' => select 'FE' => browse to select stamping result *.dyn file (mesh B)/emoticons/default_cool.png' title='B)' />

    at 'MidMesh:' => select your original file (mesh A)

     

    click 'Calculate Thickness'

    I have tried as you told, but it import these two mesh file together and the thickness contour shows no change for my target mesh,

    actually I got the file I need but I just  don't know how to realize.image.png.534779d854ff6f0660574599e080a52b.png

    So finally mesh A has been mapped thickness value from mesh B, is this right?

    => That is what you expected

     

    What do you need more?
