OptiStruct can be used to solve and optimize a wide variety of design problems in which the structural and system
behavior can be simulated using finite element and multibody dynamics analysis.
Pre-processing tools must be used to prepare models for OptiStruct, Radioss, and MotionSolve. HyperWorks provides specialized pre-processors interfacing with the solvers.
Graphical tools must be used to visualize and evaluate the results of OptiStruct, Radioss, and MotionSolve. HyperWorks provides HyperView, a specialized post-processor, for this.
The OptiStruct Example Guide is a collection of solved examples for various solution sequences and optimization types and provides
you with examples of the real-world applications and capabilities of OptiStruct.
