  Hi all,
  
  Can anyone please tell me, when I import drawing from AutoCAD to Ansys design modeler then I have to shift origin for the calculation of forces and moment at my desired location. I know AutoCAD used a global coordinate system but if I generate my own local coordinate system then how I can incorporate this coordinate system in running the Ansys model? My aim is to compute hydrodynamic forces on the bridge by using VOF, K-Omega SST?? Thanks

  Given you currently have 2-3 threads on this I'm locking this one. Maybe answer the questions that we've asked and/or rephrase what you're trying to do.
