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.
Manage all of the IDs for the entities that you create, and define ID ranges for all of the entities in each Include
file in relation to the full model in order to avoid ID duplication.
Lists various options to define animation and time history outputs in the model for post-processing. Accordingly, they
are broadly classified into three sections as Animation, Time History and Checks.
HyperWorks offers high quality tools for CFD applications enabling the engineer to perform modeling, optimization and post-processing
tasks efficiently.
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.

After loading the Radioss user profile and importing a
Radioss model, run the conversion macro by clicking Tools > Conversion > PAMCRASH. The Conversion tab opens.
In the Destination template field, select the destination solver version.
Click Convert to start the conversion. After conversion, the
selected version of the PAM-CRASH 2G user profile is
automatically loaded.
Review and export the deck using the PAM-CRASH 2G user
profile.
Some of the keywords in the Radioss deck are converted to the
PAM-CRASH 2G deck as per the following table:

The attributes converted in each KEYWORD is explained in the
Conversion dialog. Each keyword is associated with a color to
distinguish it better.
Green
All the attributes of the KEYWORD are converted to equivalent in
PAM-CRASH 2G.
Orange
Only some of the attributes of the KEYWORD are converted to equivalent in PAM-CRASH 2G.
Red
None of the attributes of the KEYWORD are converted to equivalent in PAM-CRASH 2G. Basically conversion of this keyword is not
supported by the conversion tool.
