HW11.0.101-HWDesktop-NVH Release Notes

HyperWorks HW11.0.101-NVH contains new features, enhancements, and bug fixes to the Engineering Solutionsapplications. The details are documented below.

Engineering Solutions

NVH User Profile

The new NVH solution is an integration full vehicle NVH modeling and visualization environment. You can manageobject oriented assembly definitions, including component representations and their inter-connectivity.

New capabilities have been also added to facilitate modeling of lumped parameter models and local coordinatesystems within the assembly. A new set of analysis management and loadcase setup capabilities have also been

added.

In visualization, a full set of NVH diagnostic tools are included. In addition, you can easily access relevant resultsthrough the right click context menu available based on result relationships.

New Features/Enhancements

Module Manager: A tab based GUI system that manages all aspects of modules:

Representation filesTagpointsFE entities IDsStatesProperties

Connection Manager: A tab based GUI system that manages all aspects of connections:

Connectivity and locationStates

Assembly Browser: A set of browser views that shows information related to

Assembly hierarchy and active representationsAssembly XML file structure managementAssigned FE entity ID rangesRight click context menu options for Show/Hide/Isolate as well as Find Unattached Modules

and Tagpoint functions.

Connector Browser: A set of browser views that shows information related to

Upper pane:1.Module view module based Show/Hide/Find attached/Find between capabilities2.FE component view

Lower pane:1.Connectivity view2.Property view

3.Location view

Right click context menu options for Show/Hide/Isolate as well as Set Rigid and Toggle owningmodule functions

Templated Representations/Load Cases:

Template based lumped parameter model creation mechanismTemplate based loadcase creation mechanism - the template modeling capabilities allow you to

create and manage your own LP model and loadcases in the assembly definition without theneed for include files

NVH Local Coordinate Systems: Specialized local coordinate system defined based on

Axis and planeAngleU-Joint

This allows you to create and manage your local coordinate systems for connector and LP modeldefinitions in the assembly.

Prepare Module Tools including ID Management: An environment where you can:

Renumber FE entity IDs into a range to avoid conflict with other modules in the assemblyPrepare module utilities that help you:

1.Add/assign tagpoints and plotel elements2.Add spiders3.Orient and translate model

Assign damping properties to material cards

Analysis Manager: Manage analysis definitions involving:

Module representation and states specificationConnection states specification and realizationTemplated loadcase definitions

The analysis definitions are saved into the assembly xml files to be easily recalled upon XML fileimport.

XML File Load Save Framework: XML file management allows:

Root and sub XML file export in preserve and merge modeCreate backup xml files when over writing existing onesAuto load xml content and display in 3D graphics window

This gives you the capabilities to manage your assembly in modular xml files, and transfer submodels to other assemblies easily.

NVH Toolbars: Three new toolbars have been added:
