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.
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.

mode.
Append Session
Appends the number of sessions and can be used for batch mode job
submissions.
