Create and import/export sets, create user defined coordinate systems, or use the symmetry visualization tool.
A contour plot generates color bands on the model, based on the values found in the results file.
Layers allow you to display a contour for a specified element layer when a layer definition is available for an element.
The Value filter available in the Contour panel allows you to specify threshold criteria for processing results only in a specific range.
Composites post-processing is enhanced in HyperView with the reorganization of ply results as layers.
After a contour plot has been applied in the Contour panel, the Cache feature will become active and allow you to add the currently active contour result to an internal cache.
Mid-side nodes refers to the nodes in between the corner nodes of the 2nd order elements.
Use the Iso tool to display single iso values (iso surfaced for solids or iso line for shells) dependent on results data.
Use the Vector tool to set options for a vector plot.
Use the Tensor tool to view tensor plots of stress and strain directions and magnitudes for various solvers from elemental values.
The Edit Legend dialog allows you to change the legend properties.
You can edit the contour, vector, or tensor plot legend in the graphics area.
Results in some analysis types come as complex numbers.
A listing of results that are computed in HyperView.
Nodal averaging of elemental results at a node refers to the average of all the element corner results passing through that node.
The averaging options allow you to limit the averaging of results to only a group of elements that are considered to be bound by same feature angle or face.
HyperView allows for plotting (contour, iso, vector, or tensor) across multiple overlaid models.
HyperView's animation functions allow you to view your model in motion. The three types of animation include transient, modal, and linear static.
Use the Deformed tool to specify parameters for deformation display.
The Loadcase tool allows you to create a derived load case from other load cases, or from a combination of other load cases and simulation steps.
Use the Tracking tool to track any entity during animation.
Use the Query tool to view and export properties and other information for nodes, elements, components, and systems contained in the active model.
Use the Systems Review dialog to review the orientations of various element systems (1D, 2D, or 3D), as well as material and ply systems.
The Free Body Diagram (FBD) tool facilitates the extraction and post-processing of Grid Point Force (GPFORCE) results and can be used create and edit Free Body Diagrams (FBD).
Starting in version 2021, the Stress Linearization tool has been renamed as Extract-Linearize and will support both the Extract Data and Stress Linearization methods.
A result manipulation library that enables user-defined data types to be added to a result, and transitions complex data manipulation tasks from HyperView to a reusable, modifiable set of libraries that focus solely on result processing tasks.
HyperView offers CFD post-processing capabilities for a large class of industrial applications.
The fatigue manager allows you to write stress and strain results from a finite element analysis to an external file that can be used to set up a fatigue analysis.
The fatigue configuration file is a user-defined external ASCII-file through which the data groups from results of static/modal/transient analysis of different solvers can be read.
Annotate model results using the Measures, Notes, Tracing, Image Planes, and Build Plots tools.
From the Tools menu, you can access various panels and dialogs.
From the Preferences menu, you can define file export settings and access the Options dialog.
The Aerospace menu provides you with access to various aerospace tools.
The NVH menu provides you with access to various NVH utilities.
The Vehicle Safety Tools (VST) is a collection of over 200 macros, Templex functions, and external functions for use by a vehicle safety engineer.
