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.
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.
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.
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.
Multiple Checks perform multiple checks using a single interface.
If the Offset check is ON, CAD data will be offset using thickness value. Offset CAD
data will be used to check all other checks. Check and Reports are sequentially
executed for each check. Offset, Intersection, Spotweld, Connection, Free Part check
uses Base Model selection alone and ignores Variant model selections. The comparison
function uses both Base Model and Variant Model selections. The check item's input
rules are as per individual checks explained in respective check functions.
In the Comparison Browser, right-click and select Check > Multiple_Checks from the context menu.
The Model Verification dialog opens.
Upload the base model using the Base Model options.
Select an import type.
Select a data type.
Navigate to the model to import.
Upload the variant model using the Variant Model(s) options.
Select an import type.
Select a data type.
Navigate to the model to import.
Figure 1.
Select the type of checks to perform, and define additional settings as
needed.
In the Report Path, navigate to the directory where the reports generated by
the Model Verification tool will be stored.
In the Project Name field, enter a name for the project.
In the Slide Number field, enter a starting number of the slides to use in the
PowerPoint report.
For example, if you enter a value of 1 for the slide
number, then the slide numbers in the report starts from 0001.
Choose a method for running the model.
Choose Interactive to run the model in the same
HyperWorks session.
Choose Background to launch a new HyperWorks session in batch mode and perform the operation. The
Background run mode is faster than the Interactive mode and also allows you
to utilize multiple processors that are available on the machine to complete
the operation faster. Each pair of models are divided and handled in
multiple HyperWorks sessions depending on the number of
processes selected.
For Action, choose to an operation to perform.
Choose Check to only perform a check.
Choose Report to generate a PowerPoint
report.
Choose Both to perform a check and generate a
report.
