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.
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.
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.
Open animation files, measure various distances and angles between entities, and use the Results Browser to view the model structure and find, display, and edit entities.
Create and edit user-defined data type expressions, derived load cases, and systems. You can also plot a forming limit
diagram, generate streamlines, track entities during animation, and create and import/export sets of entities.
Query entities, create or edit free body diagrams, construct multiple curves and plots from a single result file, and
create and plot stress linearization.
The Mask panel allows you to mask elements, components, and systems to reduce the number of entities displayed on the
screen. With fewer entities displayed on the screen, it is easier to pick the necessary elements or visualize important
areas of a model.
The Apply Style options dialog allows you to select and apply display attributes of the active model in the current window
to all models available in the current window, the current page, all pages, or selected HyperView windows in the session.
The Extract Solver Deck Data tool allows you to import a HyperMesh exported input deck and extract the include hierarchy assembly information from the HyperMesh commands HMNAME, HMCOLOR, and HMASSEM.
The Generate PSM for MADYMO function allows you to save analysis results of nodes as a PSM (Prescribed Structural Motion)
file. Displacement results from any animation can be exported as a PSM file.
The RAD2NOISE dialog in the utilities page allows you to create an input file based on your inputs. This input file can
be used to run the RAD2NOISE solver in batch mode.
The Tools menu provides you access to various panels and dialogs.
Add Object
Use the Add Object tool to add a graphical representation as an object to a specific component (part) or modify an existing object.
Deformed
Use the Deformed tool to specify parameters for deformation display.
Collision Detection
Use the Collision Detection tool to perform collision interference checking.
Systems Review Dialog
Use the Systems Review dialog to review the orientations of various element systems (1D, 2D, or 3D), as well as material and ply systems.
Mask
The Mask panel allows you to mask elements, components, and systems to reduce the number of entities displayed on the screen. With fewer entities displayed on the screen, it is easier to pick the necessary elements or visualize important areas of a model.
Entity Attributes
Visual properties such as shading, color, and mesh lines can be assigned to entities using the Entity Attributes panel.
Apply Style Options Dialog
The Apply Style options dialog allows you to select and apply display attributes of the active model in the current window to all models available in the current window, the current page, all pages, or selected HyperView windows in the session.
Extract Solver Deck Data
The Extract Solver Deck Data tool allows you to import a HyperMesh exported input deck and extract the include hierarchy assembly information from the HyperMesh commands HMNAME, HMCOLOR, and HMASSEM.
Generate PSM for Madymo
The Generate PSM for MADYMO function allows you to save analysis results of nodes as a PSM (Prescribed Structural Motion) file. Displacement results from any animation can be exported as a PSM file.
Extract summed node force/moments-Ansys
A script for ANSYS result files, which allows you to extract total summation of nodal force and moments for the nodes of the selected elements.
RAD2NOISE
The RAD2NOISE dialog in the utilities page allows you to create an input file based on your inputs. This input file can be used to run the RAD2NOISE solver in batch mode.
Synchronize Animation
Use the Synchronize Animation dialog to synchronize windows that contain animation results in different units and/or begin at different time steps.
Contour Measure Curves
The Contour Measure Curves dialog allows you to quickly plot contour measure curves.
Synchronize Result Step
Synchronize and switch the subcase and simulation across multiple windows on the page.
Import
The Tools menu Import option allows you to access sub-menu options and dialogs for plot styles, sets, and views.
Export
The Tools menu Export option allows you to access sub-menu options and dialogs for iso surface, plot styles, sets, and views.
