View new features for HyperMesh 2020.1.
Learn the basics and discover the workspace.
Discover HyperMesh functionality with interactive tutorials.
Solver interfaces supported in HyperMesh.
A solver interface is made up of a template and a FE-input reader.
Support provided by the CAD readers and writers.
Browsers supply a great deal of view-related functionality in HyperMesh 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.
Panels contains pre-processing and post-processing tools.
Create, edit, and cleanup geometry.
Learn about the different types of mesh you can create in HyperWorks.
Connectors are geometric entities (not FE) used to create connections between components. Connectors are used to realize FE idealizations of the physical connection. Just as you create an FE mesh on a surface, you create FE connections by realizing a connector.
A connector definition describes the connection between multiple entities at a specific location.
Overview of connector terminology.
Overview of the spot connector realization process and methods.
Overview of the area connector realization process and methods.
Learn about special connector realization types.
Use the projection control methods to control how projection should be performed for area connectors.
There are many advantages to the way connectors store information. Not only does this local storage allow you to edit the connector definition, it also allows you to review connector details and the quality of the realization.
Each individual connector can be placed in a user control mode using either the *CE_SetSpecificDetailById or *CE_SetSpecificDetail commands.
Most of the information stored in the connector entity can be exported to a master connectors file, which contains connector entity information such as location, link entity, link entity state, link entity rules. The exported file may also contain metadata information stored in the connector.
In addition to the master connectors file, the connectors reader also supports master weld file formats previously supported by the spotweld reader.
The spotweld feinput translator reads weld information from an ASCII file, such as a Master Weld File.
The FE configuration file (feconfig.cfg) is used to define custom welds such as ACM (Area Contact Method) and other special types.
Create weld points at a predefined pitch distance so that the model build process can continue without the need to wait for the published weld data from CAD. Autopitch is useful when working with elements, not geometry.
Create specialized connector realization types which can be used in fatigue calculations with the third party FEMSITE tool.
Attachments are an entity to facilitate the ease of joining subsystems.
