Solver interfaces supported in HyperMesh.
A solver interface is made up of a template and a FE-input reader.
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.
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.
Explore the different types of mesh you can create in HyperMesh 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.
Setup an Optimization in HyperMesh.
Multi-disciplinary design exploration and optimization tools.
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 HyperMesh-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 and evaluate evaluation lines and optimize 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.
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.
Use TableView to create an Excel-like spreadsheet.
TextView math scripts reference vector data from HyperGraph windows to automate data processing and data summary.
Create, define, and export reports.
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.
Common terminology used with the collaboration features is described in this section.
Content refers to any information stored in a library. Content Definitions encapsulate information about the types of information managed by the HyperMesh libraries.
Use the Organize browser to organize your data.
The Explore dialog provides enhanced capabilities for searching for and retrieving data, beyond what is provided from typical file browse dialogs.
Additional repositories, also known as data stores, can be added so that information stored in other locations, such as material databases or corporate PLM systems, can be retrieved directly from within the HyperMesh environment.
Folders and files can be added to libraries.
Use the Manage button to directly save or check in contents and files to libraries, without the need to save the file first and then publish it to a library separately.
An out-of-the-box Teamcenter Connector is available and can be used to connect to existing Teamcenter instances, if available, query for and retrieve CAD files, directly into HyperMesh. It can also be used to publish simulation files back into Teamcenter.
An out-of-the-box Windchill Connector is available. It can be used to connect to existing Windchill instances, if available, query for and retrieve CAD files directly into HyperMesh.
An out-of-the-box OpenPDM Connector is available and can be used to connect to existing OpenPDM instances, if available, query for and retrieve CAD files, directly into HyperMesh.
The openpdm_udm_config.xml file is a configuration file responsible for mapping OpenPDM data types and attributes to HyperMesh data types and attributes.
A new xml node <OpenPDM/> was added to the existing pdmsyscfg.xml. The node includes query and file upload configurations.
An out-of-the-box Total Materia Connector is available and can be used to connect to existing Total Materia instances, if available, query for and retrieve material data directly into HyperMesh.
An out-of-the-box SDM Connector is available and can be used to connect to existing SDM instances, if available, to query for and retrieve files, directly into HyperMesh. Additionally, it can be used to publish simulation files back into SDM.
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.
MotionView supports a limited version of interface with Collaboration Tools.
Collaboration Tools comes with an out-of-the-box profile, which is tailored specifically for organizing and managing material information and data.
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.
The Explore dialog provides enhanced capabilities for searching for and retrieving data, beyond what is provided from typical file browse dialogs.
An out-of-the-box OpenPDM Connector is available and can be used to connect to existing OpenPDM instances, if available, query for and retrieve CAD files, directly into HyperMesh.
