For the HyperWorks 2022 release, FE Geometry has been newly introduced. FE geometry is topology on top of mesh, meaning CAD and mesh exist as a single entity. Do you want to know more about this release? Learn directly from the source and watch this 1 hour webinar. Our presenters from the program management team are showing you the latest highlights about CAD, Geometry, and Meshing.

Geometry

  • Newly introduced FE Geometry workflows. Tools and workflows can operate similarly on CAD and FE.
  • Efficient mesh editing using geometry tools
  • Sketch - Intersect tool now supports intersection of 2D and 3D elements
  • Improved loop detection and stitching methods in patch tool
  • Auto cleanup enhanced in defeature batch tool

Meshing

  • Aggressive quality correction in batchmesher
  • Direct midmesh extraction in FE Geometry
  • Local Mapped mesh and Edge biasing Mesh controls
  • Feature identification and washer creation added on global feature mesh controls
