Start and configure the applications.
View a list of deprecated panels and their newer, equivalent workflows.
Create, open, import, and save models.
Set up sessions and create report templates.
Solver interfaces supported in HyperMesh.
A solver interface is made up of a template and a FE-input reader.
Browsers provide a structured view of model data, which you can use to review, modify, create, and manage the contents of a model. In addition to visualization, browsers offer features like search, filtering, and sorting, which enhance your ability to navigate and interact with the model data.
Create and edit 2D parametric sketch geometry.
Create, edit, and cleanup geometry.
FE geometry is topology on top of mesh, meaning CAD and mesh exist as a single entity. The purpose of FE geometry is to add vertices, edges, surfaces, and solids on FE models which have no CAD geometry.
Explore the different types of mesh you can create in HyperMesh and create and edit 0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D elements.
Create, organize and manage parts and subsystems.
HyperMesh composites modeling.
Create connections between parts of your model.
Rapidly change the shape of the FE mesh without severely sacrificing the mesh quality.
Create a reduced ordered model to facilitate optimization at the concept phase.
Workflow to support topology optimization model build and setup.
Setup an Optimization in HyperMesh.
Multi-disciplinary design exploration and optimization tools.
Validate the model built before running solver analysis.
Models require loads and boundary conditions in order to represent the various physics and/or physical equivalents to bench and in-use testing.
Reduce a full 3D model with axisymmetric surfaces while accounting for imperfections.
Tools and workflows that are dedicated to rapidly creating new parts for specific use cases, or amending existing parts. The current capabilities are focused on stiffening parts.
Position a dummy model using the Dummy Browser.
Create and articulate a kinematic mechanism based on FE mesh using the Mechanism Browser.
Use the Seatbelt Browser to create a complete seatbelt system.
Export an input deck, for the appropriate solver, in order to simulate the deformation of the seat under the dummy. The simulation result files can be imported to update the initial FE model and remove the intersections and penetrations between the dummy and the seat.
Allows you to perform a simulation of the seat foam deformation under the dummy.
Use the Barrier Positioner tool to automatically get the impact barrier into position, based on the selected crash regulation.
Use the Bus Rollover tool for the automatic recognition of the unstable position of the bus, the automatic recognition of the impact position of the bus, and the automatic creation of loadcase for impact simulation.
Use the Ejection Mitigation (EM) tool for the automatic target marking according to FMVSS-226 rules, automatic positioning of the headform impactor, and the automatic export of ready-to-run solver decks for all of the selected impact locations.
Use the IP Impact tools to automatically calculate the instrument panel (IP) testing area according to the regulations FMVSS201 and ECE-R21, position the headform impactor, and export ready-to-run solver decks for all the selected impact locations.
The Pedestrian Impact tool automates the vehicle marking, impactors positioning and the export of solver decks with minimal input, therefore reducing the full process lead time.
Use the Fmvss201U Marking tool to streamline the vehicle marking process by incorporating necessary input data for vehicle parts.
Use the Safety ribbon to access crash and safety post-processing tools.
The Altair Safety Report Manager (ASRM) is a fully customizable automatic report generation utility for crash and safety regulations.
Use airbag folder utilities and export a resulting airbag in a Radioss deck.
Essential utility tools developed using HyperMesh-Tcl.
Import an aeroelastic finite element model with Nastran Bulk Data format.
Framework to plug certification methods to assess margin of safety from the model and result information.
Use PhysicsAI to build fast predictive models from CAE data. PhysicsAI can be trained on data with any physics or remeshing and without design variables.
Results data can be post-processed using both HyperMesh and HyperView.
The Developer ribbon contains tools for automation and customization.
HyperGraph is a data analysis and plotting tool with interfaces to many file formats.
MotionView is a general pre-processor for Multibody Dynamics.
MediaView plays video files, displays static images, tracks objects, and measures distances.
Use TableView to create an Excel-like spreadsheet.
TextView math scripts reference vector data from HyperGraph windows to automate data processing and data summary.
Create, define, and export reports.
