hmmflow
Translates ASCII files from MF/FLOW, MF/COOL, MF/WARP, MF/GAS. hmmflow also translates .OUT ASCII results files from MOLDFLOW to HyperMesh binary results files.
Syntax
The syntax to translate ASCII files (other than .OUT files) is:
hmmflow [arguments] <input file> (without extensions) <output file> <model file>
The syntax to translate .OUT ASCII files is:
hmmflow -out [other arguments] <input file><output file> <model file>
Application
Translators
Description
.OUT file translation is separate from the translation of other
files. For translating .OUT files, use the
-out option. If both .OUT files and other
ASCII files need to be translated, run
hmmflow twice - once with the -outoption and
once without the -out option.

The name of a simulation indicates if it is from MF/FLOW, MF/COOL, MF/WARP, or MF/GAS. The name ends with _F if it is from MF/FLOW, _C if it is from MF/COOL, _W if it is from MF/WARP and _G if it is from MF/GAS.
Only trias and 1D elements are supported.
In the case of model files produced for .OUT files, each element group of the .OUT file corresponds to a HyperMesh component GroupN, where N is the group ID. Each of these groups can be viewed individually by selecting the Display panel from the permanent menu.
