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.
Edit the Parameter and Criteria files and define mesh controls using the Mesh Controls Browser.
1D mesh that allows accurate testing of connectors, such as bolts, and similar rod-like or bar-like objects that can be modeled as a simple line for FEA purposes.
A surface mesh or "shell mesh" represents model parts that are relatively two-dimensional, such as sheet metal or a hollow plastic cowl or case.
Use the General 2D Mesh tool to create 2D meshing with various algorithms.
Use the BatchMesher tool to perform geometry feature recognition, cleanup and automatic meshing in batch mode for given CAD files.
Use the CFD 2D Mesh tool to generate hybrid grids containing hexa/penta/tetra elements in the boundary layer and tetra elements in the core or fare field.
Use the Panel Mesh tool to generate and edit mapped panel mesh.
Use the Rigid Body Mesh tool to create a quick mesh to represent the topology of a rigid object.
Automatically generate a mesh at the midplane location, directly from the input geometry (components, elements, solids or surfaces), without first creating a midsurface.
Use the Feature Edges tool to create and edit mesh controls on an edge.
The Rebuild tool streamlines the process of remeshing existing meshes to generate a new mesh with good quality and flow. The rebuild mesh functionality utilizes the same parameter and criteria files used by BatchMesher to define the quality criteria and relevant mesh parameters. This algorithm saves significant time over the traditional automesh and quality correction approach.
Adaptive wrap meshing is a useful utility to get a clean, water tight shell mesh out of 2D mesh containing several intersecting parts and small gaps which do not need to be modeled.
EM Lattice meshing is a method to create an axis-parallel mesh for 2D and 1D geometry input.
Shrink wrap meshing is a method to create a simplified mesh of a complex model when high-precision models are not necessary, as is the case for powertrain components during crash analysis.
Create facets out of a scanned data set or node cloud data.
Volume mesh or "solid meshing" uses three-dimensional elements to represent fully 3D objects, such as solid parts or sheets of material that have enough thickness and surface variety that solid meshing makes more sense than 2D shell meshing.
Create and edit 0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D elements.
Create, organize and manage parts and subsystems.
HyperMesh composites modeling.
Create connections between parts of your model.
Rapidly change the shape of the FE mesh without severely sacrificing the mesh quality.
