Coupling structural mechanics and electrodynamics

Hey all,
I am trying to use the results of a structural simulation (a split ring resonator on a PDMS substrate) as the template for a electromag simulation (frequency domain). Thus far I have figured out how to get a stretching of the PDMS substrate by a prescribed displacement to get a deformed geometry but I cannot get the electromag solver to use the newly deformed geometry. I have coupled in the moving mesh node but nothing has changed.
I have tried to export the deformed mesh but each time I do, I get an error about a variable in a Jacobian being undefined.
If anyone has some insight or has worked on something similar I would greatly appreciate any advice in this matter.
Best,
Max
