2021
Many essential utility tools using HyperWorks-Tcl have been developed over the years to support Aerospace customers. A few tools have been collected and upgraded to be compatible with this release.
The Aerospace menu is a useful utility to build and view aerospace models.
Calculate free-body forces, moments, displacements and rotation.
Plot displacements and rotations at nodes.
View new features for Engineering Solutions 2021.
HyperWorks Engineering Solutions is a modeling and visualization environment for NVH, Crash, CFD, Drop Test and Aerospace using best-in-class solver technology.
Discover Engineering Solutions functionality with interactive tutorials.
Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH) is an important vehicle attribute that directly affects the customer experience.
Use Squeak and Rattle Director tool to create evaluation lines, evaluate them and optimize the interfaces to eliminate squeak and rattle issues.
The Crash application offers a tailored environment in HyperWorks that efficiently steers the Crash CAE specialist in CAE model building, starting from CAD geometry and finishing with a runnable solver deck in Radioss, LS-DYNA and PAM-CRASH 2G.
HyperWorks offers high quality tools for CFD applications enabling the engineer to perform modeling, optimization and post-processing tasks efficiently.
The Drop Test Manager is an automated solution that allows you to either simulate a single drop test or a choice of multiple iterations with the aim of finding the sensitivity of process variables like initial orientation and drop height in a typical drop test by controlling the run parameters and conditions with ease.
Create an assembly structure from a .csv file definition.
The results post-processing workflow is now embedded in HyperMesh, and you can seamlessly process solver native results in HyperMesh. The File Loader is used to generate the new results entity.
Use the Matrix Browser to explore the HyperMesh and HyperView data entities and export the entities to external files for further analysis.
Enables exploring the element force and moment results (internal loads) from solver result files (grid point forces) for further component sizing/optimization tasks and also for component certification/margin calculation.
Calculate the contribution of one or more elements to the force and moment equilibrium at desired nodes.
Define visualization options for the free-body plot.
Plot free-body displacements and rotations for the selected loadcase.
Define a cross-section plane.
Display free-body forces and moments at each cross-section along a node path.
Potato plots are used to build load envelopes. VMT plots are used to build tensile, shear and bending moment diagrams.
Display normal and shear loads of panel structural members.
Display forces and moments acting on beam and bar elements.
In Nastran, the F06 file contains information related either to the diagnostic of the model, analysis check up and results. This tool enables you to parse a defined number of information blocks and store them as a HyperMesh table entity with a given name.
Use this tool to evaluate for the selected elements the average value of the selected result type.
Framework to plug certification methods inside HyperWorks to assess margin of safety from the model and result information.
Provides tools to create and manage connectors.
Provides functions to help you morph the shape of a finite element model.
Engineering Solutions Optimization technology is supported by OptiStruct.
Solver interfaces supported in Engineering Solutions.
A solver interface is made up of a template and a FE-input reader.
Support provided by the CAD readers and writers.
Browsers supply a great deal of view-related functionality in Engineering Solutions by listing the parts of a model in a tabular and/or tree-based format, and providing controls inside the table that allow you to alter the display of model parts.
Panels contains pre-processing and post-processing tools.
Create, edit, and cleanup geometry.
Learn about the different types of mesh you can create in HyperWorks.
Create connections between parts of your model.
Create, organize, and manage the CAE parts.
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.
Overview of how to build a finite element model.
Morph the shape of your finite element model.
Setup an Optimization in Engineering Solutions.
Convert finite element models to another solver format.
Study relationships between data vectors in results files.
Learn how to use post-processing functions.
