What's New
View new features for Engineering Solutions 2022.1.
Get Started
Engineering Solutions is a modeling and visualization environment for NVH, Squeak and Rattle Director, Crash, CFD, and Aerospace using best-in-class solver technology.
Tutorials
Discover Engineering Solutions functionality with interactive tutorials.
NVH
Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH) is an important vehicle attribute that directly affects the customer experience.
Squeak and Rattle Director
Use Squeak and Rattle Director tool to create evaluation lines, evaluate them and optimize the interfaces to eliminate squeak and rattle issues.
Crash
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.
CFD
HyperWorks offers high quality tools for CFD applications enabling the engineer to perform modeling, optimization and post-processing tasks efficiently.
Aerospace
Essential utility tools developed using HyperWorks-Tcl.
Interface with External Products
Solver interfaces supported in Engineering Solutions.
Entities and Solver Interfaces
A solver interface is made up of a template and a FE-input reader.
CAD Interfaces
Support provided by the CAD readers and writers.
Browsers
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.
Panels
Panels contains pre-processing and post-processing tools.
Geometry
Create, edit, and cleanup geometry.
Meshing
Different types of mesh you can create in HyperWorks.
Connectors
Create connections between parts of your model.
Model Build and Assembly
Create, organize and manage parts and subsystems.
- Manage Parts
  - About Parts, Part Assemblies, Part Instances
    A part is an engineering representation of a physical part, and a part assembly is a group of part assemblies and/or parts. Part Instances, which are recognized from PDM, are automatically converted to Part Instances on import into HyperMesh.
  - Create Parts, Part Assemblies, and Part Instances
    Only CAE parts and part assemblies can be manually created in HyperMesh. PDM parts and part assemblies must be imported into HyperMesh.
  - Import Parts, Part Assemblies, and Part Instances
  - Organize Part Assemblies and Parts
    Organize part assemblies, parts, and components in your model.
  - Save Assemblies as HyperMesh Binary Files
    The part assembly can be saved as a self-contained binary file, which will include the part assembly based hierarchy and attributes such as components, properties, and materials.
  - Manage Representations
    - About Representations
      The CAD representation is typically the original source of information of what a physical part will look like. It forms the basis of the Common representation, which in turn is the basis of all subsequent discipline specific mesh representations. A part can contain multiple representations.
    - Create Representations
    - Define Representations
      Create your own user defined representation. User defined representations are saved to the settings and will be available in subsequent HyperMesh sessions.
    - Add Representations
      Part representations can be added from external sources such as solver decks and HyperMesh binary files or from the Part Library.
    - Browse Library Content
      Review library content using the Library Viewer.
    - Load Representations
      Part representations can be loaded from your current HyperMesh session or from the Part Library.
      - Load Representations from Current HyperMesh Session
      - Load Representations from the Part Library
        After importing a BOM that has representations saved in the Part library, you can load the saved representations.
    - Reload Representations
      Restore part representations to their original state.
    - Unload Representations
      Unload part representations from a session.
    - Update Metadata From PDM
    - Sync Metadata To PDM
      Sync PDM metadata (PDM PID, PDM Thickness, PDM Material, and PDM MID) based on a selected part or part's metadata (PID, Thickness, Material, MID).
    - Save Representations
      After importing a BOM and creating respective representations, you can save the representations locally or in the Part Library.
    - Delete Representations
      Part representations can be deleted from the current HyperMesh session and from the Part Library.
    - Representation Load Settings
      Settings to configure the representation entity management behavior.
  - Manage Part Revisions
    Manage, control and update Major, Study and Library Part revisions using the Part Library.
  - Manage Configurations
    Group common and unique parts/part assemblies together in part sets, and organize parts and part sets that are unique to a configuration.
  - PDM Live Connection
    Using PDM live connection, on-demand downloading of datasets from external PDM systems such as Teamcenter is possible
- Manage Subsystems
- PostgreSQL Installation and Configuration
  Also referred to as Postgres, PostgreSQL is an object-relational database management system with emphasis on extensibility and standards compliance.
Model Verification
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.
Model Setup
Overview of how to build a finite element model.
Morphing
Morph the shape of your finite element model.
Optimization
Setup an Optimization in Engineering Solutions.
Conversion Between Solver Formats
Convert finite element models to another solver format.
XY Plotting
Study relationships between data vectors in results files.
Post-Processing Analysis
Learn how to use post-processing functions.
