Engineering Solutions is a modeling and visualization environment for NVH, Squeak and Rattle Director, Crash, CFD, and Aerospace using
best-in-class solver technology.
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.
This section describes the basic ideas of Engineering Solutions's morphing technology and how it can be combined with HyperStudy and a CFD solver to perform automated design or optimization studies.
The morphing capabilities of Engineering Solutions enable you to generate new designs based on an existing mesh, in a simple and quick manner, and can be accessed via
the Morphing option in the menu bar of the CFD user profile.
During morphing the element quality can be monitored by activating the auto quality check function, selecting an element
criteria and defining a threshold.
HyperView is a powerful CFD post-processor which can import result data from all major CFD solvers (AcuSolve, CFD++, Fluent, and so on) via the EnSight format.
Browsers supply a great deal of view-related functionality 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.

Engineering Solutions offers a large variety of methods to
define morph volumes. One of the simplest ways is to select the elements in the graphical
area and click create from the Morph Volume panel.
Split
Morph volumes can be split at a certain location by selecting an edge of the morph volume
and then selecting a split location on this edge. Open this panel by clicking Morphing > Morph Volume.
Adapt
For complex grids it might be necessary to adapt the morph volumes to the shape of the
grid. By setting the morph volumes to “inactive”, the handles can be moved without morphing
the underlying grid. After adapting the morph volumes, make sure to set the switch back to
“active” to enable the mesh morphing. Open this panel by clicking Morphing > Morph Options.
