  Hi,I asked in the old forum about a hidden LS-DYNA keyword *COUPLE_TO_OTHER_CODES. The original post can be found here: https://forum-legacy.ansys.com/discussion/comment/145144?I tried to apply this to my simulation but had to find out that no version of PrePost that I could find was able to include the keyword in the input files. Do I need to get a special version for the mpp version of ls-dyna? Where can I find it?If there is no such version, can you give me an example on how to use the keyword in an input file? Thanks

  Hello,
  The *COUPLE_TO_OTHER_CODES keyword is undocumented (not in the user manual) and so LS-PrePost will not support it. You can use this keyword by adding it to your .k model using a text editor.
  Also, Ansys does not provide support nor examples on undocumented keywords. You will have to do your own research on how to use it.
