Results data can be post-processed using both HyperMesh and HyperView.
HyperView is a complete environment to visualize, query, and process results data.

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.
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.
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.
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.

Framework to plug certification methods to assess margin of safety from the model and result information.
Streamline the creation of properties and 1D stiffener mesh using the info read from Marine CAD tools.
Create evaluation lines, evaluate them, and optimize the interfaces to eliminate squeak and rattle issues.
Explore the GeoD user interface.
Panels contains pre-processing and post-processing tools.
Direct integration of native results readers into HyperMesh allows you to perform results visualization on the model.
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.
Use the Section Cut tool to cut planar or spherical sections through a model.
Use the Contour tool to create contour plots of a model and graphically visualize the analysis results.
Use the Iso tool to display single iso values (iso surfaced for solids or iso line for shells) dependent on results data.
Use the Vector tool to set options for a vector plot.
Use the Tensor tool to view tensor plots of stress and strain directions and magnitudes for various solvers from elemental values.
The Edit Legend dialog allows you to change the legend properties.
You can edit the contour, vector, or tensor plot legend in the graphics area.
Results in some analysis types come as complex numbers.
A listing of results that are computed in HyperView.
Nodal averaging of elemental results at a node refers to the average of all the element corner results passing through that node.
The averaging options allow you to limit the averaging of results to only a group of elements that are considered to be bound by same feature angle or face.
HyperView allows for plotting (contour, iso, vector, or tensor) across multiple overlaid models.
The fatigue manager allows you to write stress and strain results from a finite element analysis to an external file that can be used to set up a fatigue analysis.
The fatigue configuration file is a user-defined external ASCII-file through which the data groups from results of static/modal/transient analysis of different solvers can be read.
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.
Annotate animation files using notes or trace various entities during animation.
