Area connectors must be meshed in order to work properly. When the connector’s location is existing FE mesh elems,
the connector automatically gets meshed to match the elements chosen. However, after creating an area connector on
surfs, lines, or along nodes, you must use the automesh options (which display when you select one of these locations
types) to create a mesh on the connector area.
A new part is needed in the assembly. In this tutorial you will learn how to delete the original component, import
a new part, and update the connections. You will also export the connector information to a single file, and then
export the entire FE input deck and observe how the connector information is preserved.
In this tutorial, you will learn how to simultaneously replace multiple components in your current model using the
Part Replacement tool. You will be replacing six related components (bumper, front frame, and radiator frame) in the
Pr_Inc.k include file with components that contain a finer mesh.
Learn how to perform a DOE study using HyperStudy and the HyperStudy Job Launcher within HyperMesh. HyperMorph is used to parameterize the shape of the design.
Browsers supply a great deal of view-related functionality in HyperMesh 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.
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.
Learn about HyperMesh assembly procedures in these
tutorials.

HM-3430: Part Replacement Through Connectors
A new part is needed in the assembly. In this tutorial you will learn how to delete the original component, import a new part, and update the connections. You will also export the connector information to a single file, and then export the entire FE input deck and observe how the connector information is preserved.
HM-3450: Multi-Component Replacement
In this tutorial, you will learn how to simultaneously replace multiple components in your current model using the Part Replacement tool. You will be replacing six related components (bumper, front frame, and radiator frame) in the Pr_Inc.k include file with components that contain a finer mesh.
