HyperMesh composites modeling.
Pre-processing in HyperMesh.
Utilities for working with composite models.
View new features for HyperWorks 2022.1.
Learn the basics and discover the workspace.
Discover HyperWorks functionality with interactive tutorials.
Start HyperWorks and configure the applications.
Create, open, import, and save models.
Set up sessions and create report templates.
Solver interfaces supported in HyperWorks.
A solver interface is made up of a template and a FE-input reader.
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.
Create and edit 2D parametric sketch geometry.
Create, edit, and cleanup geometry.
FE geometry is topology on top of mesh, meaning CAD and mesh exist as a single entity. The purpose of FE geometry is to add vertices, edges, surfaces, and solids on FE models which have no CAD geometry.
Different types of mesh you can create in HyperWorks.
Create and edit 0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D elements.
Create, organize and manage parts and subsystems.
An introduction to composites terminology and modeling methods.
Examples of a typical workflow that can be followed to define a composite model in HyperMesh. The order of steps provided does not need to be strictly followed but should be used as a template.
Use the Composite Browser to create, organize, and manage composite modeling data.
Entities that comprise composite parts.
Use the Composites panel to assign and review the element material orientation of a mesh of shell and continuum shell elements, or to review the fiber direction (ply angle) of individual composite layers.
Kinematic Drape provides methods to predict manufacturability of composite parts with challenging shapes and to align material direction for the structural simulation. Draping simulation predicts how the orientation of a ply will change as the ply is placed in a tool/mold.
Drape Estimator tool and options.
Supported CAD readers and writers for CATIA and FiberSim.
Visualization of commonly used coordinate systems.
Aerospace tools for working with composites.
Use the Injection Molding ribbon to facilitate the development of accurate structural simulation models for reinforced injection molded parts and assemblies.
Composite stress toolbox functionality which supports calculation of engineering constants, compliance and stiffness matrices, parameterized joint and panel analysis, and other traditional hand-calculation methods.
Development of multiscale and single scale material models and simulation of parts manufactured from any heterogeneous and homogenous material.
Create connections between parts of your model.
Rapidly change the shape of the FE mesh without severely sacrificing the mesh quality.
Create a reduced ordered model to facilitate optimization at the concept phase.
Workflow to support topology optimization model build and setup.
Multi-disciplinary design exploration and optimization tools.
Validate the model built before running solver analysis.
Reduce a full 3D model with axisymmetric surfaces while accounting for imperfections.
Tools and workflows that are dedicated to rapidly creating new parts for specific use cases, or amending existing parts. The current capabilities are focused on stiffening parts.
Tools used for crash and safety analysis.
Airbag solutions offer airbag folder utilities and exports a resulting airbag in a Radioss deck.
Essential utility tools developed using HyperWorks-Tcl.
Import an aeroelastic finite element model with Nastran Bulk Data format.
Framework to plug certification methods to assess margin of safety from the model and result information.
Create evaluation lines, evaluate them, and optimize the interfaces to eliminate squeak and rattle issues.
Panels contains pre-processing and post-processing tools.
Results data can be post-processed using both HyperMesh and HyperView.
HyperGraph is a data analysis and plotting tool with interfaces to many file formats.
MotionView is a general pre-processor for Multibody Dynamics.
MediaView plays video files, displays static images, tracks objects, and measures distances.
TableView creates an Excel-like spreadsheet in HyperWorks.
TextView math scripts reference vector data from HyperGraph windows to automate data processing and data summary.
Create, define, and export reports.
