  - HM-4605: Define LS-DYNA Model and Load Data, Controls, and Output
    In this tutorial, you will: view LS-DYNA keywords in Engineering Solutions; understand part, material, and section creation and element organization; create sets and velocities; understand the relation of LS-DYNA entity type to Engineering Solutions element and load configurations; create nodal single point constraints and contacts with set segment ID; define output and termination; and export models to LS-DYNA formatted input files.
  - HM-4610: Use Curves, Beams, Rigid Bodies Joints, and Loads in LS-DYNA
    In this tutorial you will: create XY curves to define non-linear materials, constrained nodal rigid bodies, and joints; define beam elements with HyperBeam, *DEFORMABLE_TO_RIGID, *LOAD_BODY, *BOUNDARY_PRESCRIBED_MOTION_NODE; and use the Engineering Solutions Component Table tool to review the model's data.
  - HM-4615: Model Import, Airbags, Export Displayed, and Contacts with LS-DYNA
    In this tutorial you will define the following: *AIRBAG_WANG_NEFSKE for the airbag mesh geometry; initial velocity of 3 mm/ms in the negative x-direction for the head with *INITIAL_VELOCITY_GENERATION; a contact between the airbag and head with *ICONTACT_AUTOMATIC_SURFACE_TO_SURFACE; *CONTACT_AIRBAG_SINGLE_SURFACE for the airbag; and a contact between the plate and the airbag with *CONTACT_NODES_TO_SURFACE.
  - HM-4620: Create Rigid Walls, Model Data, Constraints, Cross Sections, and Output with LS-DYNA
    In this tutorial you will: create *PART_INERTIA for the vehicle mass component, velocity on all nodes except barrier nodes with *DEFINE_BOX and *INITIAL_VELOCITY, a contact between the crash boxes, the bumper, and the barrier with *CONTACT_AUTOMATIC_GENERAL, and a stationary rigid wall; use *DATABASE_HISTORY_NODE to specify nodes to be output; use *DATABASE_CROSS_SECTION_PLANE to specify the output of resultant forces; and make nodes a part of the mass rigid body with *CONSTRAINED_EXTRA_NODES.
  - RD-T: 3540 Front Impact Bumper Model
    This tutorial demonstrates how to find deformation, stress and energy absorbing capacity of various structural components of a vehicle hitting a stationary or moving object.
  - RD-T: 3550 Simplified Car Front Pole Impact
    This tutorial demonstrates how to simulate frontal pole test with a simplified full car.
  - CRASH-2200: Pedestrian Head Impact Simulation
    The goal of this tutorial is to see how head impact simulation following the pedestrian safety regulation EuroNCAP can be defined using the Pedestrian Impact tool starting from a full vehicle model.
  - CRASH-2300: Create a Seat Mechanism Using the Mechanism Browser
    The goal of this tutorial is to create a seat mechanism.
- NVH Tutorials
NVH
Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH) is an important vehicle attribute that directly affects the customer experience.
Squeak and Rattle Director
Use the 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.
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.
