The title bar displays the name of the file that is currently opened, along with the active product and user profile.
The menu bar contains pull-down menus that provide access to standard functions such as file management operations, system preferences, and help.
Each toolbar contains a group of icon buttons that provide access to common tools.
The tab area organizes browsers, Utility menus for the solver interfacing user profiles, and other functionality not shown in the panel area in different tabs.
The modeling window displays your model, geometry and plots.
Quickly find and open the tools, panels, and browsers that are available from the menu bar pull-downs or from the Utility Browser, as well as create solver cards.
Panels contains pre-processing and post-processing tools.
The status bar displays information pertaining to the currently loaded model as well as descriptions of the pages and panels.
Undo and redo actions performed in Engineering Solutions.
View options allow you to define how geometry and graphics are displayed in the modeling window.
Adjust your view of the model in the modeling window.
Set the view to the "reverse" of the current view.
Return the modeling window to the view before a rotation, zoom, center or other viewing manipulation was performed.
Use the Visualization controls to change many of the visual states in Engineering Solutions and HyperView.
Input controls allow you to manipulate your methods of entering and controlling different aspects of Engineering Solutions.
Engineering Solutions requires the use of different types of data files, from its own database files which contain data on model geometry, mesh, loads, boundary conditions, and so on, to property cards, master weld files and many more.
Configure the view and behavior of Engineering Solutions.
Discover Engineering Solutions functionality with interactive tutorials.
Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH) is an important vehicle attribute that directly affects the customer experience.
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.
