    Hi

    Yes, there is not back compatibility of hm files with HyperWorks versions, namely, HyperWorks files generated in the newer version will not open in older versions.

    What you may do is export the lsdyna file, that is an ASCII format, and load in the version of HyperWorks you need to use.

     

    And about the student edition, yes, the preprocessor only allows the profiles for Radioss and OptiStruct.

     

    I Hope this is helpful.
