Solver interfaces supported in HyperWorks.
Collectors are named organizational containers for collected entities. Collected entities are nameless entities which must reside within one, and only one, collector. Collected entities are mutually exclusive to a collector.
Entities which are given a name but are not collected or organized into containers.
Domain entities divide the model into different domains during morphing.
Handle entities control the shape of domains during morphing.
Morph constraint entities restrict the movements of nodes or force compliance with dimensional requirements during morphing. These constraints are always valid for all available morphing approaches.
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.
Shape entities are collections of handle and/or node perturbations from the initial configuration of the FE mesh before morphing.
Symmetry entities define planes of symmetry within a model so that morphs can be applied in a symmetric fashion.
Entities used to set up optimization problems.
Control card entities create solver control cards such as results file I/O options, CPU and memory limits, and others.
Undefined entities are entities that will not be written to the solver deck.
The encryption of solver entities is used to translate entity data into an undisclosed language.
Element property and material assignment rules are based on the current user profile (solver interface).
Supported cards organized by solver.
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.
