Start HyperWorks and configure the applications.
There are various types of startup customizations that are possible for HyperWorks. These items define how the application looks or behaves at product startup.
Report templates are ASCII text files that contain statements for creating reports.
View new features for HyperWorks 2022.
Learn the basics and discover the workspace.
Discover HyperWorks functionality with interactive tutorials.
Learn how to start HyperWorks applications on Windows and Linux.
The start-in directory is the location from which the HyperWorks application is launched.
HyperWorks writes several different settings files.
HyperMesh allows you to create a script file named hmcustom.tcl that can be used to automatically execute a series of commands or to define custom settings during startup.
Environment variables can be defined to configure various aspects of HyperWorks.
Extension are programs integrated with HyperWorks to enhance or extend the user experience.
A preference file is an ASCII file that configures the application or its clients. It specifies default user settings, such as the order in which colors are assigned, the default printer and default page layout.
A session file is an ASCII text file that contains a structured list of session statements.
Report templates consist of statements similar to session and preference statements.
Every statement in a Report Definition file begins with an asterisk, *. Lines without asterisks are treated as comments.
Specifies if a session/report template contains a HyperView-Upfront Loader window.
Specifies a value to be applied to each layer of an attribute.
It is a session file (.mvw) script statement and report definition file (.tpl) statement in the *BeginLegend() and *BeginNote() blocks.
Indicates the beginning of a layer attributes block.
Creates an instance of a curve from the given curve definition.
Begins a curve definition block.
Begins a graphic definition block.
Begins a page definition block.
Begins a plot definition block.
Begins a report definition block.
Begins a text editor definition block.
Indicates the end of a definition block.
Creates an instance of a graphic from the graphic definition.
Creates an instance of a page from the page definition.
Specifies the label, variable type, and optional default for a report parameter.
Specifies the global mesh mode and polygon mode settings for the model itself.
Creates an instance of a plot from the plot definition.
Specifies the name of the report to be used in the interface.
Assigns a numeric value to a Templex variable in a text window.
Assigns a string value to a Templex variable in the text editor.
Creates an instance of a TextEditor from the given TextEditor definition.
Sets the time delay for each of the windows on a page.
Sets the time scale factor for each of the windows on a page.
Specifies an optional view related setting.
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.
Import an aeroelastic finite element model with Nastran Bulk Data format.
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.
Results data can be post-processed using both HyperMesh and HyperView.
HyperGraph is a data analysis and plotting tool with interfaces to many file formats.
MotionView is a general pre-processor for Multibody Dynamics.
MediaView plays video files, displays static images, tracks objects, and measures distances.
TableView creates an Excel-like spreadsheet in HyperWorks.
TextView math scripts reference vector data from HyperGraph windows to automate data processing and data summary.
Create, define, and export reports.
