Also referred to as Postgres, PostgreSQL is an object-relational database management system with emphasis on extensibility and standards compliance.
Use the automotive section library for rapid concept development in the early phases of the vehicle design process.
Use the Organize tool to move or copy entities into their proper destinations.
Automatically group selected parts into part sets based on comparison method and criteria selected.
Use the Renumber tool to review and organize the IDs of model entities.
Manage all of the IDs for the entities that you create, and define ID ranges for all of the entities in each Include file in relation to the full model in order to avoid ID duplication.
Detect, review, and manage geometric holes, fillets, flanges, and logos.
Create and articulate a kinematic mechanism based on FE mesh using the Mechanism Browser.
Perform automatic checks on CAD models, and identify potential issues with geometry that may slow down the meshing process using the Verification and Comparison tools.
Properties define various physical and mathematical characteristics of parts such as sheet metal, extruded, and simplified representations of parts. The assignment and unassignment of properties have a specific set of rules based on the solver interface being used.
Materials definitions like properties quantitatively define physical characteristics. Many definitions exist like isotropic, anisotropic, and orthotropic and other material laws that represent steel, plastics, composites, etc. The assignment and unassignment of materials have a specific set of rules based on the solver interface being used.
Systems are available for assignment to properly control the orientation of entities like loads, transformations of parts, model has degrees of freedom for movement during simulation among many other applications.
Use the Auto Contacts tool to determine contact interfaces between selections of components or elements. Based on the user-specified options like proximity tolerance, surface creation method, main surface type, and secondary type, the tool generates contacts based on set segments or node and element combinations.
Create, review, and edit RBE2/RBE3 elements and MPC equations.
The Abaqus solver offers the flexibility of modeling rigids as surfaces using primitive geometry.
Create and edit 2D parametric sketch geometry.
Create, edit, and cleanup geometry.
Different types of mesh you can create in HyperWorks.
Create and edit 0D/1D entities and edit 2D elements.
Rapidly change the shape of the FE mesh without severely sacrificing the mesh quality.
