Solver interfaces supported in HyperWorks.
Collectors are named organizational containers for collected entities. Collected entities are nameless entities which must reside within one, and only one, collector. Collected entities are mutually exclusive to a collector.
Entities which are given a name but are not collected or organized into containers.
Domain entities divide the model into different domains during morphing.
Handle entities control the shape of domains during morphing.
Morph constraint entities restrict the movements of nodes or force compliance with dimensional requirements during morphing. These constraints are always valid for all available morphing approaches.
Morph volume entities are highly deformable six-sided prisms which surround a portion of the FE mesh, and can be used to manipulate a mesh by manipulating the shape of the morph volume.
Shape entities are collections of handle and/or node perturbations from the initial configuration of the FE mesh before morphing.
Symmetry entities define planes of symmetry within a model so that morphs can be applied in a symmetric fashion.
Entities used to set up optimization problems.
Control card entities create solver control cards such as results file I/O options, CPU and memory limits, and others.
Undefined entities are entities that will not be written to the solver deck.
The encryption of solver entities is used to translate entity data into an undisclosed language.
Element property and material assignment rules are based on the current user profile (solver interface).
Supported cards organized by solver.
Create, organize, and manage the CAE parts.
Create, edit, and cleanup geometry.
Learn about the different types of mesh you can create in HyperWorks.
Create and edit 0D/1D entities and edit 2D elements.
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.
Create connections between parts of your model.
HyperMesh composites modelings.
Tools used for crash and safety analysis.
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.
Multi-disciplinary design exploration and optimization tools.
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.
Import an aeroelastic finite element model with Nastran Bulk Data format.
Use the marine tool set to streamline the creation of properties and 1D stiffener mesh using the info read from Marine CAD tools.
Use Squeak and Rattle Director tool set to create evaluation lines, evaluate them and optimize the interfaces to eliminate squeak and rattle issues.
Panels contains pre-processing and post-processing tools.
HyperView is a complete environment to visualize, query, and process results data.
HyperGraph is a data analysis and plotting tool with interfaces to many CAE file formats.
MotionView is a general pre-processor for Multibody Dynamics.
MediaView plays video files, displays static images, tracks objects, and measures distances.
