| Elemental |
Select to review the orientations of the following element systems:
- 1D elements, shells, and solids
-
- 1D Bars, Beams, Rods, etc. are supported for
OptiStruct and
Nastran solvers. See
the HyperView Solver
Interfacing topic for information regarding all of
the supported element types.
Known Limitations:
- The location of the 1D systems on HyperMesh and
HyperView may be
different, depending on the end/offset conditions,
however the orientations should match. HyperView draws systems at the
centroid of the 1D element.
- 2D and 3D
-
- Penta6 in HyperView and
OptiStruct are
different from Nastran.

| Material |
Select to review the orientations of various material systems.
- Material
-
- Plot composite stress/strain in Elemental, Material,
Global, or User-defined systems.
- Overlay tensor plots (composite stress/strain) with
material direction plot.
- Material systems are available as resolved in
systems in Contour/Iso/Tensor panels for the data
types supported.
Known Limitations:
- For plotting data types that do not have relevance to the
Material system (for example, Stress with Z1 and a Z2 data
type), it is not advised that you apply the Resolved-in
system of Material, because this can result in incorrect
transformations.
- Composite stress is required as a data type in order to view
ply layers in the dialog.
- See the HyperView Solver
Interfacing topic for information regarding all of the
supported solver and element types.

| Ply |
Select to review the orientations of various ply systems.
- Ply
- Ply systems are available as resolved in systems in
Contour/Iso/Tensor panels for the data types supported.
Known Limitations:
- For plotting data types that do not have relevance to the
Ply system (for example, Stress with Z1 and a Z2 data type),
it is not advised that you apply the Resolved-in system of
Ply, because this can result in incorrect transformations.
- Composite stress is required as a data type in order to view
ply layers in the dialog.
- See HyperView Solver Interfacing
for information regarding all of the supported solver and
element types.
