HyperSizer Pro™
All the functionality of HyperSizer Basic™, plus coupling with FEA for system level analysis and automatic finite element model resizing. Maintain and report results of a complete vehicle detail design. Perform advanced statistical optimization and find multiple robust optimum solutions for manufacturing producibility review. Plug-in your own analysis software to supplement HyperSizer's methods and have their results integrated with and graphically displayed in the interface.
HyperFEA®
Automatic Iteration with FEA - HyperSizer uses
FEA computed element forces to size a
structure’s panels and beams. After
optimizing a structure’s cross sectional
dimensions and selecting the optimum
materials and composite layups with
these forces, HyperSizer will generate the
FEM data for the next iteration of FEA
internal computed loads. This coupling
process has in the past been manually
iterated. Now with HyperFEA™, this
process can be automatically iterated
until convergence is achieved.
After updating the FEM element
stiffnesses, HyperFEA submits the
NASTRAN FEA solution, and reads the
results for the next HyperSizer sizing
optimization. HyperFEA also interactively
plots weights of panels and beams as it
iterates.
