The Altair GUI Toolkit is a resource tool for coding Tcl/Tk dialogs. It contains documentation of the HyperWorks commands, demo pages that illustrate our Altair GUI standards, and sample code for creating those examples.
The Model Identification Tool, known as HyperWorks, is a profile in HyperGraph for fitting test data from frequency- and amplitude-dependent bushings to analytical models. The HyperWorks operates in conjunction with HyperGraph, MotionView and MotionSolve to provide you with a comprehensive solution for modeling and analysis.
Use the View Data tab to specify, plot and view your data. The tab is divided into three working sections: Dynamic
Data, Static Data, and Curve and Plot Properties. A fourth section displays a static image of the Conceptual Cubic.
The Filter Data tab provides options to filter experimental data. You can use this tab to remove certain frequency,
amplitude or preload data from the experiment.
The Altair Bushing Model is a library of sophisticated, frequency- and amplitude-dependent bushing models that you can use for
accurate vehicle dynamics, durability and NVH simulations. The Altair Bushing Model supports both rubber bushings and hydromounts.
This section provides information about using the Altair Bushing Model, also known as AutoBushFD, with MotionView. The Altair Bushing Model is a sophisticated model that you can use to simulate the behavior of bushings in vehicle
dynamics, durability and NVH simulations.
HgTrans translates solver results files from their native file format to Altair Binary Format (ABF). This can be done using
the HgTrans GUI or via the HgTrans batch mode.
The HyperWorks Automation Toolkit (HWAT) is a collection of functions and widgets that allows an application to quickly assemble
HyperWorks automations with minimal effort and maximum portability.
HyperWorks Verification and Validation Harness (HVVH) is a tool that can be used to verify and validate HyperWorks products. End users can use this tool to quickly evaluate the software quality, performance, reliability,
scalability, and robustness, and to gain more confidence in HyperWorks products.
Uninstall HyperWorks is a tool to launch the HyperWorks uninstallation program. This program contains two options that allow you to either remove the originally installed
files, or remove all the files that resides in the installation directory.

The Review Data tab lets you load, view, and plot your experiment data.
Select the Review Data tab.
Click Load Experiment.
A tree populates with the directions and cycles for the experiment. The
HyperWorks automatically loads experiments, directions and
cycles in the tree as the fitting or analysis for individual directions is
completed. The Experiment is the root node for the tree. The Experiment node can
contain one or more cycles. Each cycle contains direction(s) fitted in that
cycle. You can select one or more rows using the check box.
When loading your experiment, you can select from the following:
Experiment Folder: Loads all cycles and directions from the experiment
folder into the tree.
Cycle Folder: Loads a cycle and its related directions from the cycle
folder into the tree.
Direction Folder: Loads only the selected direction into the
tree.
To unload an experiment, find the experiment in the review tree, select its
box, and then click Unload Experiment. Selecting an
Experiment or Cycle recursively unloads all children from the review tree.
The HyperWorks gives you many options to plot experiment data.
To plot data, you must select the data you wish to plot along with the layout
style options found at the bottom of the Review Data tab. The options for
plotting data include the following:
Click the Common Axis Range checkbox to apply
the same axis range to all HyperGraph plots.
Click Overlay Plots to overlay plots in a current
HyperGraph session if the layout style (number
of pages and number of windows on each page) matches with previously plotted
curves. If the layout style differs, HyperGraph
plots to new pages.
Click New Plots to plot curves from your selected
experiments into a new HyperGraph session.
Tip:
Select an Experiment on the review table tree: This method plots all
cycles under the selected experiment using the layout that was
selected for those cycles during the Fit/Analyze process.
Select a Cycle on the review table tree: This method plots all
directions in a selected cycle using the layout that was selected
during the Fit/Analyze process.
Select the Direction check box on the review tree: This method plots
curves of a selected direction using the layout that was selected
during the Fit/Analyze process.
