Enclose Morph Volumes
Use the Morph Volumes: Enclose tool to create morph volumes with rectangular or circular shapes. Enclosed mesh and connectors are automatically registered to the enclosing volumes by default.

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.
HyperMesh composites modeling.
Create connections between parts of your model.
Rapidly change the shape of the FE mesh without severely sacrificing the mesh quality.
Morph constraint entities restrict or prescribe the movement of nodes during morphing, with a variety of available methods and dimensional values. These constraints are valid across all available morphing approaches and can be individually activated or deactivated at any time, even in between morphs or applying shapes.
Use the Free tool to morph mesh by moving nodes, faces, edges, and shapes or by mapping to geometry.
Use the Proximity tool to morph mesh using a simple distance or perturbation value around selected nodes, faces, edges, or shapes.
Morph volume entities are highly deformable six-sided prisms which surround a portion of the FE mesh, and can be used to manipulate a mesh by manipulating the shape of the morph volume.
Use the Morph Volumes: Enclose tool to create morph volumes with rectangular or circular shapes. Enclosed mesh and connectors are automatically registered to the enclosing volumes by default.
Use the Morph Volumes: Move tool to morph or adjust morph volumes by moving vertices/handles, edges, and faces with graphical manipulators.
Use the Morph Volumes: Split/Combine tool to split morph volumes using a single or multiple locations along an edge, combine adjacent morph volumes along shared faces, join pairs of separate morph volumes, or equivalence any number of morph volume faces using a search distance.
Use the Morph Volumes: Edges tool to adjust the interaction of the morph volumes by adding or removing handles on the edge of the volumes or changing the tangency of the volumes.
Use the Morph Volumes: Register tool to review and edit the contents of morph volumes. Only registered contents will morph when morphing morph volumes. Entities that can be registered to morph volumes are nodes and connectors.
Shapes are collections of perturbations from the initial configuration of the FE mesh before the morph.
Domain entities divide the model into different domains during morphing.
Handle entities control the shape of domains during morphing.
Symmetry entities define planes of symmetry within a model so that morphs can be applied in a symmetric fashion.
Undo all morphs and return to the original state of the model.
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.

As you select entities, morph volumes are automatically created around them using the current settings. You can keep adding/removing entities or modifying the settings and the volumes will update automatically until you exit the tool or click Enclose.
Global and Best Fit types create automatically oriented rectangular volumes.
