FAQ 4: how to get the derived results (for example add displacement results from two load cases)
Use derived results which will pop up an expression builder (an inbuilt math expression creator) in HyperView.

FAQ 6: How to contour results by configuration (1D, 2D or 3D)?
In HyperView,
On contour panel click the yellow color selector (components/element). A new window will pop-up “extended entity selection”. In that click By config and choose the element configuration type (for 2D: QUAD4/QUAD8)

FAQ 7: How to add notes to entities on a model?
You can add text boxes placed in HyperView windows for labeling items, describing trends, and relating additional information.
Go to Annotations-->Notes-->add a new note (you can rename it by right clicking on it) -->switch “Attach to” to Entity. In field names below, you can select a variety of information to display like model info, analysis type, contour value, etc…

FAQ 8: How to get Maximum result of entities (nodes/elements) from multiple load cases?
Go to-->query-->Advanced… this will open a pop-up window Advanced Query. Apply to All and change the entity type to Nodes/elements. Toggle Value to TopN and give a value (say 2 for top 2 maximum results), Loadcase to ALL LOADCASES and click apply. This will display Maximum results for all load cases. The same can be done for compoenents.

FAQ 9: How to record animation on HyperView?
HyperView allows user to record simulation animation during post-processing. To record animation use Capture Graphics Area Video which is available from Image capture toolbar (go to-->View-->toolbars-->HyperWorks-->Image capture).
You can also capture images of Graphic area and panel area using other tools available in same panel.![Image]()

T junction and interface laminates
Hi, I'm trying to model a composite ibeam with PCOMPP and interface laminates. I would like to know what is the best approach for doing so.
The beam has top & bottom caps, left & right "C" channels and a core in between the channels (image 1).
I created a midsurface model of the beam and then created the plys and sublaminates and assigned the corresponding interfaces (black stars on image 1). My question has to do with the way hypermesh displays the interface laminates. in the second image you can see how the C channel sublaminates extend to the web's middle surface completely ignoring the Core sublaminate thickness :x .
In a different approach, I tried adding fillets to smooth the C channel corners but it turned out to be more problematic due to the triple intersection (image 3). can this be fixed by using two 2d-element layers for the webb? If so, what contact can I use to join the two element layers?
I appreciate your help. :)

convert a STL mesh file into solid part
From Direct mail to EDU support
Do you know how to convert a STL mesh file into solid part for finite element analysis?
Using stereo-photogrametry tech I have a geometry of the structure in the STL format. Now I try to import it into hypermesh for FEM analysis.
I will appreciate it if you help me.

Re: convert a STL mesh file into solid part
Hi ,
STL files can be imported into HyperMesh, You need to use File > Import > File type > STL and then choose the file. see http://www.altairuniversity.com/support-forum/?mingleforumaction=viewtopic&t=264
Once the STL file has been imported you can then use Geom > surfaces from FE and select the highest complexity in this panel > select the elements to create surfaces from STL, hence you can create geometry from stl.
To directly solid mesh your STL use ShrinkWrap
You can achieve a good tetramesh for all purposes, using the Shrink Wrap panel. The shrink wrap can generally be used as a quick mechanism to generate solid meshes.
1. Go to 2D > Shrink Wrap panel.
2. Here there is an option generate solid mesh – this will produce an all-hexa or all-tetra mesh based on the selected elements or geometry.
3. Make sure the generate solid mesh checkbox is active
4. This will expose a tet collapse input, please try several input values depending on your quality requirements.

Re: T junction and interface laminates
Hi,
in order to model stacks where the stacking sequence can't be defined uniquely combination of sublaminate and interface laminate modelling maybe useful.
try this:
create sublaminates for top, right C section, left C section and bottom
create interface laminates for top and right C (with interface ply1 as last ply of top and interface ply2 as first ply of right C)
repeat the same for top and left
repeat the same for bottom and right and bottom and left but change the interface plies accordingly.
if you still have the problem, we may need your model. Please use the dropbox below:

Renumbering: bandwith optimization
Hello,
I am looking for an option to optimize node renumbering (Cuthill-McKee-algorithm) in hypermesh 12.0. Is there any optimization algorithm for bandwidth reduction implemented?
Many thanks and best regards,
Thomas
