Input Controls
Input controls allow you to manipulate your methods of entering and controlling different aspects of Engineering Solutions.
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.
Explore the Engineering Solutions user interface.
The title bar displays the name of the file that is currently opened, along with the active product and user profile.
The menu bar contains pull-down menus that provide access to standard functions such as file management operations, system preferences, and help.
Each toolbar contains a group of icon buttons that provide access to common tools.
The tab area organizes browsers, Utility menus for the solver interfacing user profiles, and other functionality not shown in the panel area in different tabs.
The modeling window displays your model, geometry and plots.
Quickly find and open the tools, panels, and browsers that are available from the menu bar pull-downs or from the Utility Browser, as well as create solver cards.
Panels contains pre-processing and post-processing tools.
The status bar displays information pertaining to the currently loaded model as well as descriptions of the pages and panels.
Undo and redo actions performed in Engineering Solutions.
Control the view and display of your model in the modeling window.
Use the Visualization controls to change many of the visual states in Engineering Solutions and HyperView.
Input controls allow you to manipulate your methods of entering and controlling different aspects of Engineering Solutions.
The mouse attached to your system is integral to Engineering Solutions and can be used in almost every aspect of user input. Some operations require pressing a keyboard key in addition to using the mouse.
Default keyboard shortcuts.
Entity selectors allow you to indicate which entities are to be modified when a function is performed.
The Plane and Vector selector is used in many panels, the Entity Editor or dialogs to define a plane or a vector (direction) to perform a certain function.
Input fields are used to enter text or numerical values.
The Color Palette is used in many panels, browsers, the Entity Editor, and dialogs to specify the color of an entity.
The calculator is designed using "reverse Polish" notation, meaning that you enter the value that you wish to apply first, and then click the operation that you wish to perform.
Engineering Solutions requires the use of different types of data files, from its own database files which contain data on model geometry, mesh, loads, boundary conditions, and so on, to property cards, main weld files and many more.
Configure the view and behavior of Engineering Solutions.
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.
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.
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.
