This set of data will be of interest for you when you are familiar with legacy versions of HyperWorks and want to start using the new interface (here: in version 2021).

However, it is intended especially for complete beginners with the software.

After having worked through it, you will be familiar with the basic concept of the HyperWorks Applications HyperMesh and HyperView.

It is a small number (23) of short videos (max ~5 minutes), showing you in a sequential order basic steps of setting up, analyzing and postprocessing a finite element model of a simple structure with HyperWorks and OptiStruct.

It will start with a chapter about basic handling of the interface. Then it handles the steps from importing and editing geometry and creating a mesh on it. After that loads and loadsteps are defined and the analysis is launched. Finally some basic postprocessing is performed.

Each video has the data available which is worked on in it, for you to be able to follow what you see, step by step in the software. That means that you do not need to follow the exercises sequentially, but can separately perform the chapters with the functionality of your current interest.

Now have a look at the attachment of this article: Simply download and unzip the zip-file - then follow the contained pdf file. Videos and exercise data are linked from inside it (do not separate the files of the unzipped data - this may break the links contained in the pdf file.)
