Hello everyone,
In HyperMesh 2019 and previous versions, we usually use 'BCs manager' to create the boundary conditions for Radioss (force, spc, displacement, velocity,...)

In HyperMesh2020, BCs manager has been removed from Tool menu.

How can we find it?
To be honest, this is a very bad modification in v2020, especially for old users like me.
We have already been familiar with using BCs manager.

Hope there is a solution for this. If not, many users will deny using Hm2020.
Thanks in advance!

    Hi,

     

    There has been some changes in the way boundary conditions are applied and organized in Hyperworks X.

     

    The BC manager isn't available; instead BCs are applied under Analyze (on the menu bar).

     

    Also boundary conditions are now organized under load collectors (similar to Optistruct).

     

    I too was not happy at first with the change, but it just takes some time to get used to it.

    In HW 2020 RADIOSS interface, is there a engine file assistant button? I can't seem to find it

    Yes, there is. If I remember correctly (I am away from my Hyperworkstation), it should be under Analyze (on the menu bar), towards the right end (probably Run), it is a suboption.

     

    Alternatively, search for any keyword with ctrl+f
