Use the CATIA Composites Link option to import drape data. This method is separate from the CATIA reader, where drape data is not imported.
The FiberSim reader is supported for Nastran and OptiStruct user profiles.
NX import is available through two different readers: UGOpen native reader and a third-party non-native reader.
The NX reader utilizes the UGOpen library to read files from NX.
The NX Third Party reader does not need a valid NX installation or license to access these libraries.
CAD readers provide options for processing data during import.
Each reader reads the CAD file and sends the geometry information to HyperWorks. When a CAD file is read, a .msg file is created (or appended to) in the current working directory.
Learn about possible difficulties you may encounter during CAD import.
The metadata names generated by the CAD readers are composed of a general prefix followed by a metadata specific name.
The prefix is specified using the @MetadataPrefix
option in each _reader.ini file.
