Browsers provide a structured view of model data, which you can use to review, modify, create, and manage the contents of a model.

Create and edit 2D parametric sketch geometry.

Create, edit, and cleanup topology.

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.

Explore the different types of mesh you can create in HyperWorks and 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.

Design and optimize structures and mechanical systems.

Multi-disciplinary design exploration and optimization tools.

Direct integration of native results readers into HyperMesh allows you to perform results visualization on the model.

Validate the model built before running solver analysis.

Models require loads and boundary conditions in order to represent the various physics and/or physical equivalents to bench and in-use testing.

Reduce a full 3D model with axisymmetric surfaces while accounting for imperfections.

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.

Tools used for crash and safety analysis.

Use airbag folder utilities and export 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.

Create evaluation lines, evaluate them, and optimize the interfaces to eliminate squeak and rattle issues.

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.

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 section cuts and explore the various result plotting tools.

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.

Define planes of symmetry/axisymmetry or explode a model.
