The Altair GUI Toolkit is a resource tool for coding Tcl/Tk dialogs. It contains documentation of the HyperWorks commands, demo pages that illustrate our Altair GUI standards, and sample code for creating those examples.
The Model Identification Tool, known as HyperWorks, is a profile in HyperGraph for fitting test data from frequency- and amplitude-dependent bushings to analytical models. The HyperWorks operates in conjunction with HyperGraph, MotionView and MotionSolve to provide you with a comprehensive solution for modeling and analysis.
HgTrans translates solver results files from their native file format to Altair Binary Format (ABF). This can be done using
the HgTrans GUI or via the HgTrans batch mode.
The HyperWorks Automation Toolkit (HWAT) is a collection of functions and widgets that allows an application to quickly assemble
HyperWorks automations with minimal effort and maximum portability.
HyperWorks Verification and Validation Harness (HVVH) is a tool that can be used to verify and validate HyperWorks products. End users can use this tool to quickly evaluate the software quality, performance, reliability,
scalability, and robustness, and to gain more confidence in HyperWorks products.
The solver output results are used for further design verification and validation. The accuracy of the results as
processed, interpreted, and visualized by a post-processor is key. HyperView is used to post-process most of the solver(s) results. Use the Result tab to ensure that HyperView does not deprecate any result information after post-processing.
The Result comparison HG versions tab performs time history comparison. From this tab, you can perform the curve's
super positioning of the current and reference version result files and plot the differences in curves.
The Compare HG Versions - Template-Session tab performs time history comparison. From this tab, you can perform the
curve super positioning of the current and reference version result files and plot the difference in curves.
From the HV Versions - Template-Session tab, HyperView template or session files are used as the input files. You can select some or all of the displayed subcase,
simulation, and result types and compare them across any versions of HyperView.
Uninstall HyperWorks is a tool to launch the HyperWorks uninstallation program. This program contains two options that allow you to either remove the originally installed
files, or remove all the files that resides in the installation directory.

Result comparison HV versions tab ensures that HyperView
does not deprecate any result information after post-processing.
Any combination of results from different data types, simulation and
subcases are exported for each HyperView version
and compared.
Any difference would trigger the problem and would be reported.
Different levels of verification and validation include:
Verification of the result file across two versions of HyperView (with the same solver version
results).
Click the Result tab then the Result
comparison HV versions tab.
From the Solver drop-down menu, select a solver whose results are to be
compared.
Options include:
Abaqus
ANSYS
CFD-Ensight
FEMZIP
LS-DYNA
MADYMO
Marc-t16
Nastran
PAM-CRASH
Radioss
OptiStruct
UNV
Hyper3D
Select a Tolerance method then input the value used to set the tolerance for
the difference in values between the reference and current version result files
during comparison.
Option
Description
Default
1e-6 for Scalar, Tensor, and Vector, if not individually
chosen.
Scalar
Enter values if different for the scalar result type.
Vector
Enter values if different for the vector result type.
Tensor
Enter values if different for the tensor result type.
User Defined
Click Tolerance and set the individual
tolerance value for all data types.
Click Apply to set new values.
Choose between a PowerPoint or
HTML report of the result value comparison.
Pass
This returns a detailed report containing one slide per data type
across load cases.
Fail
In case of a failure, one slide per load case for each datatype is
published so that it is easy to identify the load case that contains
a difference in values.
Select the current and reference solver
version.
Select the HyperView model file.
Select the HyperView result file.
Select an output directory.
Click Apply to store your results.
Select any combination of subcases, simulations, and result types from the
populated areas.
Click All to select all items listed.
Click Apply to generate data to compare the results of
the chosen combination.
The Compare result section displays the current file
and the corresponding reference file. Click Report to
display the diff report detailing the differences between files.
