Is it possible to use RBE2, RBE3 and MPC in HyperMesh when the solver is ABAQUS? If it’s possible, please explain where I can find them in HyperMesh?
Like this in Radioss:

Thank you
maysam,
Yes it is possible, go to the 1D page and choose the rigid or the RBE3 panels.
Go through the abaqus manual and identify the rigid element or mpc that you need to use and then you can choose this element type in the above mentioned panels, see the images below.
Here is a description that will help you
*KINEMATIC COUPLINGConstrain all or specific degrees of freedom of a set of nodes to the rigid body motion of a reference node.Rigid panel of hypermeshChoose element type in the panel - KINCOUP
*MPCDefine multi-point constraints.Rigid panel of hypermeshChoose element type in the panel - BEAM, LINK, PIN, TIE
RBE3RBE3 panel of hypermeshChoose element type in the panel - DCOUP3D, COUP_DIS
See HyperWorks Desktop Applications > HyperMesh > User's Guide > HyperMesh Panels > HyperMesh Panels Listed Alphabetically: RBE3
and HyperWorks Desktop Applications > HyperMesh > User's Guide > HyperMesh Panels > HyperMesh Panels Listed Alphabetically: Rigids Panel Panel to learn how to use these panels.
How can I introduce kinematic coupling in optistruct or in radioss?
