Simulating coupled acoustic resonators

I am interested in simulating the frequency response of a cantilever beam located in an acoustic resonance structure. I am able to find the eigenfrequencies of the cantilever by itself using the structural mechanics eigenfrequency simulation. I am also able to plot the pressure response of the acoustic resonator at the point of interest using a frequency domain pressure acoustics simulation. My difficulty is in combining these two simulations, to be able to plot the deflection of the cantilever inside of the acoustic resonator as a function of the frequency of the incoming pressure field. Can somebody please give me a basic overview of the approach necessary to to this, or maybe give a link to a tutorial involving a similar kind of simulation.
Additionally, I am curious if there is an easy way to pass variables between simulation steps. For example, if step 1 is an eigenfrequency simulation, I want to use the harmonic eigenfrequency as a variable for a step 2 frequency sweep simulation. This seems like something that should be easy to do but I have been unable to find a solution.
Thank you!
