How to exclude deleted elements from state files?

Hello,

I am currently using state files to run 2 consecutive simulations. Stress are exported for shell and tetra elements in a state file during the first simulation, and the second simulation include  the state file to consider an initial stress state for concerned elements. My problem is that I use failure laws in both simulations. During the first simulation, location and stress data are exported in the state file for all elements, including the deleted elements. However, these elements should not be included in the second simulation.

Is there a possibility to exlude deleted elements from the state file generated in my first simulation?

Thank you for your help,

Leo
