HyperWorks

What's New
View new features for Altair HyperWorks 2023.1.
Get Started
Learn the basics and discover the workspace.
Tutorials
Learn more about the Altair HyperWorks suite of products with interactive tutorials.
Startup Procedures and Customizations
Start and configure the applications.
Tool Finder
View a list of deprecated panels and their newer, equivalent workflows.
Manage Files and Data
Create, open, import, and save models.
Sessions and Report Templates
Set up sessions and create report templates.
Interface with External Products
Solver interfaces supported in HyperMesh.
Entities and Solver Interfaces
A solver interface is made up of a template and a FE-input reader.
Browsers
Browsers provide a structured view of model data, which you can use to review, modify, create, and manage the contents of a model. In addition to visualization, browsers offer features like search, filtering, and sorting, which enhance your ability to navigate and interact with the model data.
Sketching
Create and edit 2D parametric sketch geometry.
Topology
Create, edit, and cleanup geometry.
FE 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.
Meshing and Elements
Explore the different types of mesh you can create in HyperMesh and create and edit 0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D elements.
Model Build and Assembly
Create, organize and manage parts and subsystems.
Composites
HyperMesh composites modeling.
Connectors
Create connections between parts of your model.
Morph
Rapidly change the shape of the FE mesh without severely sacrificing the mesh quality.
Skeleton Modeling
Create a reduced ordered model to facilitate optimization at the concept phase.
Design Space
Workflow to support topology optimization model build and setup.
Optimization
Setup an Optimization in HyperMesh.
Design Explorer
Multi-disciplinary design exploration and optimization tools.
Validate
Validate the model built before running solver analysis.
Analyze
Models require loads and boundary conditions in order to represent the various physics and/or physical equivalents to bench and in-use testing.
Axisymmetry
Reduce a full 3D model with axisymmetric surfaces while accounting for imperfections.
Concept Modeling
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.
Crash and Safety
Tools used for crash and safety analysis.
Airbag
Use airbag folder utilities and export a resulting airbag in a Radioss deck.
Aerospace
Essential utility tools developed using HyperMesh-Tcl.
Aeroelasticity
Import an aeroelastic finite element model with Nastran Bulk Data format.
Certification
Framework to plug certification methods to assess margin of safety from the model and result information.
Squeak and Rattle Director
Create and evaluate evaluation lines and optimize interfaces to eliminate squeak and rattle issues.
PhysicsAI
Use PhysicsAI to build fast predictive models from CAE data. PhysicsAI can be trained on data with any physics or remeshing and without design variables.
Results Data
Results data can be post-processed using both HyperMesh and HyperView.
Plot Data
HyperGraph is a data analysis and plotting tool with interfaces to many file formats.
Multibody Modeling
MotionView is a general pre-processor for Multibody Dynamics.
Media Files
MediaView plays video files, displays static images, tracks objects, and measures distances.
Tabulate Results
Use TableView to create an Excel-like spreadsheet.
Text Files
TextView math scripts reference vector data from HyperGraph windows to automate data processing and data summary.
Publishing and Reporting
Create, define, and export reports.
Collaboration Tools
Explore, organize and manage your personal data, collaborate in teams, and connect to other data sources, such as corporate PLM systems to access CAD data or publish simulation data.
- Terminology
  Common terminology used with the collaboration features is described in this section.
- Contents and Content Definition
  Content refers to any information stored in a library. Content Definitions encapsulate information about the types of information managed by the HyperMesh libraries.
- Open the Organize Browser
  Use the Organize browser to organize your data.
  - Repositories
    There is one out-of-the-box repository, Personal (managed repository).
  - Libraries
    Libraries can be created within a repository to logically organize or group the contents stored within a repository. Repositories can contain one or more libraries.
  - Create a New Workspace
    A workspace is a local directory where files are retrieved from the vault so that they can be viewed and/or modified.
  - Folders and Categories
    Content inside a library can be organized by folders and categories.
  - Content Browser
    The Content Browser is the main component of the Organize browser and displays library content in many ways, according to options available from the toolbar.
  - Properties Panel
    The Properties panel shows metadata names and values for the selected object in the Content Browser.
  - Set Preferences
    Use the Content Browser to set your preferences.
  - Data Authoring
  - Browse and Query Contents
    - Category and Folder View
      Use the Category view to view the library contents according to category. Use the Folder view to view the library contents according to what folders they reside in.
    - Show and Hide References
      Contents that refer to other contents are indicated with the Show/Hide References icon.
    - Show and Hide Properties
    - Repository and Workspace View
      For managed libraries it is possible to see all contents belonging to the library (Repository view) or only the content whose documents are retrieved in the current workspace (Workspace view).
    - Show/Hide Recycle Bin
      The recycle bin works in much the same way as the recycle bin on the Windows operating system. Contents that have been deleted from the library are moved to the recycle bin.
    - Find Contents
    - Filter Contents
      Filter contents by using the Filter toolbar.
    - Export Contents
      You can export and create a new library with selected contents from your active library.
    - Import a Library
    - Labeling
      Labeling is a convenient way to associate groups of related contents together so they can be easily retrieved and viewed as a set.
    - Search for Contents
      - Queries
        A query is defined by a set of content types, categories, folders and a condition or a structure of conditions.
      - Create a Simple Query
      - Save a Simple Query
      - Create an Advanced Query
      - Apply an Advanced Query
      - Save an Advanced Query
    - Lifecycle Operations
      Lifecycle operations include operations such as Get, which retrieves a content to your workspace, and Check-Out and Check-In, which result in versioning of contents.
- Open the Explore Dialog
  The Explore dialog provides enhanced capabilities for searching for and retrieving data, beyond what is provided from typical file browse dialogs.
- Add Subscribed Parts
  Use the Subscribe dialog to register or subscribe to parts or items of interest that reside within a corporate PDM system. Once the parts have been subscribed to, the dialog helps to ensure that you are working with the latest information by allowing you to quickly check whether any subscribed to parts have been updated, and to seamlessly retrieve updated information and files for those that have.
- Add MotionView Models into the Library
  MotionView supports a limited version of interface with Collaboration Tools.
- Material Library
  Collaboration Tools comes with an out-of-the-box profile, which is tailored specifically for organizing and managing material information and data.
