Altair HyperForm 2025 Release Notes

Enhancements

STA file size reduction from Radioss incremental solver run
The STA file exported from the solver run is broken into a smaller mesh file and compressed file (str.gz) that has all the initial conditions to reduce memory footprint. Use the STA file as usual to set up multistage analysis. Keep the str.gz file from the previous stage in the run folder.
Results initializer
The following additional parameters can now be defined for each part:
  • Draw direction
  • Interface friction
A summary report in html format is now available with the following columns when only feasibility analysis is picked:
  • Part name, ID, thickness, material, blank holding force condition, maximum thinning, maximum plastic strain

Resolved Issues

  • Tube bending and hydro bending can now handle tube parts with special characters in their names.
