Apply load to a deformed mesh/geometry

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I have applied load to a hypeelastic material model for a stationary structural analysis and I have gained the deformed result. I am trying to apply the second load to the deformed boundary on the basis of the previous deformed shape. I am not quite sure what approach I should use.
1. I tried to export the deformed mesh and started a new simulation, but I had problem to export the nodal solution and to apply the pressure on the deformed boundary.
2. I tried to apply load by step, i.e. load=pressure*n, (n=1,2), it works when pressure is low and it starts showing error when loads increases too much. Has anyone had experience to similar problem ? Thank you.
