Rapidly change the shape of the FE mesh without severely sacrificing the mesh quality and create, edit, and apply
shapes for subsequent design optimization studies.
The Design Space environment is dedicated to topology optimization model build and setup. It facilitates rapid model creation by generating
the voxel design space for a number of different use cases.
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.
Using the Export OptiStruct Solver
File, export the solver file and the variation study TPL and XML file.
The exported XML file will be used in HyperStudy to solve the
Stochastics or the DoE study.
From Analyze group, select Export OptiStruct
Solver File.
Note:Export Variability Study check box gets activated
only when SnRD detects a variability study in the
model.
Check the Export Variability Study box.
Enter a name in the Study Name field.
Select which transient load case to run in the study.
Define number of runs in the Number of Runs field.
Note: The Number of Runs value is automatically assigned by SnRD based on the number of studies and the number of
variables. User need not edit this, but has the freedom to do so.
Select analysis type. Available options are-
Stochastics
DoE
Select required option in Combine All drop down
list.
Click Export.
This will export the variability study TPL and XML files along with the
OptiStruct solver file to the selected folder.
Note: Use the exported
TPL file in Altair
HyperStudy to generate run database and results required for
DoE/Stochastics study.
Variability Study Export Options
Variability Study export options are described
below-
Study Name
Define a study name for the exported files.
Loadcase
Select the loadcase.
Number of Runs
Numerical value to define the number of runs for the study.
Analysis Type
Stochastics
DoE
Combine All
Yes- Combines all the studies in the session into
single file.
No- Individual files and folders are created for
every study in the session.
