  Hi everyone,
  
  I hope you are doing well, I want to open result file 'file.rst' which is usually saved from workbench FSI simulation in
  
  dp0-SYS-MECH
  
  I have to work with it in workbench because I need to have deformation data from it, but workbench supports only .wbpj format. Although I can open .rst format in CFD post but from there i cannot get the values of any property (deformation )verses time.
  
  Is there any way of doing this?
  
  Regards

  Hi,
  
  Open the setup file and read the result file.

  Thank you very much for your kind reply, but as I open, the 'Read result files' tab is inactive as you can see:
  
  did you mean the setup file something else other than the .wbpj file?
  
  waiting for your kind response.

  Hi,
  
  Click on Solution tab and Try again.
  
  Make sure the rst file corresponds to the workbench setup.

  Hi Sathya.
  
  can you please advise if it is possible to open rst file in the new(empty) WB Mechanical model? Or it should be only in the model that includes the set up for the analysis?
  
  Thank you in advance,
