Dear Jean-Paul and Timo, Thank you very much for your reply.
I would like to use 'save ()' and 'load() ' functions as both of you suggested, but it is not fully clear to me how should they be used in the dealii code (I am using a code similar to step-44 large deformation problem). Suppose I need to save all the trangulation information and data like displacements, stresses, strains, etc. and use them as initial data on the saved geometry. It would be very helpful if you kindly explain little elaborately and tell me if any of the examples has used this idea (or some other reference). Thanks a lot. Regards, Anup.
