HyperWorksEngineering Solutions is a modeling and visualization environment for NVH, Crash, CFD, Drop Test and Aerospace using best-in-class solver
technology.
NVH analysis is a special form of physical analysis where the understanding of motion, energy and force transfer are the
primary means of root cause identification and problem solving.
Set parent modules with CMS SE representation in H3D format to be used for analysis in lieu of child module representations
when rolled up, or use the child representations when rolled down.
To manage any of the modules shown in the Assembly Browser, right-click on a module and select Edit Representations. This opens the Edit Module tab, and the Representation sub-tab is shown.
Create panel sets by selecting nodes/elements and/or existing node sets in the model file, that will automatically be
used in setting up Panel Participation diagnostic output in NVH analysis.
In a real-life application, necessary preparation work needs to be done to get the module representation files to a state
that is ready for assembly. Use the Prepare Module tool to accomplish this goal.
Edit and test NVH templates used for creating lumped parameter (LP) models, multiple instances of one model transformed
to a new geometric location, or loadcases.
An Analysis is a collection of module, connection and loadcase selections that completely specifies the assembly definition
for a particular simulation event.
Package all project data (Assembly .xml files, Representation files, LP Templates, Loadcase files, Job files and CSV templates) for transfer to others or for
archival.
The Crash application offers a tailored environment in HyperWorks that efficiently steers the Crash CAE specialist in CAE model building, starting from CAD geometry and finishing with
a runnable solver deck in Radioss, LS-DYNA and PAM-CRASH 2G.
HyperWorks offers high quality tools for CFD applications enabling the engineer to perform modeling, optimization and post-processing
tasks efficiently.
The Drop Test Manager is an automated solution that allows you to either simulate a single drop test or a choice of
multiple iterations with the aim of finding the sensitivity of process variables like initial orientation and drop
height in a typical drop test by controlling the run parameters and conditions with ease.
Many essential utility tools using HyperWorks-Tcl have been developed over the years to support Aerospace customers. A few tools have been collected and upgraded to
be compatible with this release.
Browsers supply a great deal of view-related functionality in Engineering Solutions by listing the parts of a model in a tabular and/or tree-based format, and providing controls inside the table
that allow you to alter the display of model parts.
Perform automatic checks on CAD models, and identify potential issues with geometry that may slow down the meshing
process using the Verification and Comparison tools.
Assembly Browser
The Assembly Browser is an object-oriented modeling environment where the fundamental entity is the module entity.
Module Symmetry
Allows symmetric creation of LP Modules, Connections and dynamic LCS.
Module Reparenting
Allows you to change the assembly hierarchy by cutting or pasting the modules.
Module Roll-Up/Roll-Down
Set parent modules with CMS SE representation in H3D format to be used for analysis in lieu of child module representations when rolled up, or use the child representations when rolled down.
Module Subsystem
Select and define a set of modules as the subsystem used for analysis.
Edit Module
To manage any of the modules shown in the Assembly Browser, right-click on a module and select Edit Representations. This opens the Edit Module tab, and the Representation sub-tab is shown.
Batch Create Module
Create assembly hierarchy and assign ID ranges to the modules from external .csv files.
Batch Prepare Module
Reduces the amount of manual work involved in preparing a large number of modules by batch.
Tagpoint Mapping Tool
Allows automated mapping/creation of tagpoints and connections between data from different sources.
Connection Creation
Connections can be created using the Create Connection-Interactive and Create Connection-Automatic tools.
Connection Browser
Once the connections have been created, use the Connector Browser to review the connections.
Connection Manager
Connections can be managed by right-clicking on a connector in the Connector Browser and selecting Edit Connection.
Connection Realization
Use the Connection Realization tool for realization of selected connections based on the specified Tolerance, Property state and State rule.
LCS Manager
Allows you to manage local coordinate systems created in the Assembly framework.
Response Point Manager
Create defined response points that will be automatically used in setting up output requests in NVH analysis.
Frequency Set Manager
Create standard analysis frequency sets that will be automatically used in setting up analysis frequencies in NVH analysis.
Tire Patch Point Manager
Create and handle tire modules in different formats, such as CDtire and modal model.
Control Volume Manager
Create defined control volumes that will be automatically used in setting up Transfer Path Analysis diagnostic output in NVH analysis.
Panel Set Manager
Create panel sets by selecting nodes/elements and/or existing node sets in the model file, that will automatically be used in setting up Panel Participation diagnostic output in NVH analysis.
Prepare Modules
In a real-life application, necessary preparation work needs to be done to get the module representation files to a state that is ready for assembly. Use the Prepare Module tool to accomplish this goal.
NVH TPL Editing Tool
Edit and test NVH templates used for creating lumped parameter (LP) models, multiple instances of one model transformed to a new geometric location, or loadcases.
Analysis Manager
An Analysis is a collection of module, connection and loadcase selections that completely specifies the assembly definition for a particular simulation event.
Batch Model Check Run Dialog
Reduce the amount of manual work involved in performing a normal modes run to check out multiple modules by batch processing.
Batch Model Reduction Dialog
Reduce the amount of manual work involved in generating CMS superelements or CDS superelements for multiple modules by batch processing.
Job Manager
Job Manager is designed to provide a way to interact with analysis jobs created through the NVH Director.
Network View
The network view is a block diagram view emphasizing inter-connectivity of the assembly.
Solver Deck Comparison
Allows for quick comparison of master solver decks generated from the Analysis Manager or existing master solver decks.
File Path Replace
Allows automatic mapping of modified and/or missing file paths and folders in the .xml file.
Pack & Go Dialog
Package all project data (Assembly .xml files, Representation files, LP Templates, Loadcase files, Job files and CSV templates) for transfer to others or for archival.
Tuning Set Manager
Create standard tuning sets that can be used in the Analysis Manager for automatically setting up quick modification runs in NVH analysis.
