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.
Create assembly hierarchy and assign ID ranges to the modules from external
.csv files.
It is also possible to assign ID ranges manually. It shows the detailed summary of module
ID ranges in terms of assignment, validity and conflicts. Right-click on a module in the
Assembly Browser and select Batch Create Module
to open the dialog.
Assembly Hierarchy Creation and ID Assignment from an External CSV File
Click Import to open the Import modules and id
ranges dialog. Load a .csv file that has assembly
hierarchy and ID assignment definition. Select the modules and click OK to create modules in hierarchy and assign ID
ranges.
All of the modules and corresponding ID ranges are populated on the left hand side. Use the
Assign arrow to create the modules and assign ID ranges. You can also unassign the ID range
by clicking the Unassign arrow.
Assignment, Validity and Conflicts Status of Module ID Ranges
The detailed summary of module ID ranges in terms of assignment, validity and conflicts is
shown in the ID Manager with color coding. ID ranges for the modules can be exported in
external .csv files using the Export button. The assigned ID ranges for
modules can be modified/changed using the Edit icon. It is possible to visualize all modules
in an assembly or only child modules with representation files. There are also options to
view Open and Open+ ranges.
