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 and handle tire modules in different formats, such as CDtire and modal
model.
The Tire Patch Point Manager is invoked by clicking the icon, which opens
the Manage Tire Patch Points dialog.
Fraunhofer functionalities are integrated to generate CDTire models. Tire models, CDTire
and/or modal models can be added in the Tire Patch Points Manager. Corresponding
representations can be created, repositioned and assigned to tire modules. The defined tire
patch points will automatically be used in setting up input or constraints to the tire patch
points in NVH analysis.
By default, four tire patch point sets are listed in the dialog. To create tire modules,
generate tire models and define tire patch points for a set, highlight the row corresponding
to the set, and then click the icon, which opens the Define tire patch point
dialog.
A tire module is created by clicking the icon corresponding to the Module name, which opens the Add
module dialog. You can create a new tire module or select a tire module that
was already created. A new tire module is created by specifying a Module name, a DMIG label
name (for CDTire), the ID range and then selecting the Attachment TagPoint with the relevant
module.
A tire is created by clicking the icon corresponding to the tire, which opens the Add
module dialog. You can define tire models for CDTire and modal model.
To create a CDTire, select CDTIRE as the Tire type. This will activate the options
necessary to generate a CDTire H3D file from Fraunhofer’s Parameter file. Select the
Parameter file, specify the relevant options, and click Create to
create the H3D file.
To define the modal model, select MODALFE as the Tire type. Select
the relevant file and then click Extract TagLabels. Next, select the
Attachment Tagpoint, Patch points, and then
click Create.
Now the defined tire models are available in the Define tire patch point dialog. Select the
Tire and assign it to a selected or created tire module. Multiple tires can be assigned to a
single tire module. Patch points are loaded for the tire selected.
The assigned tire to the tire modules is defined as a separate representation. For CDTire,
the H3D DMIG names are also visible for your information.
