Not only does this mean less back-and-forth between different CAD and CAE products, but it will also supplement the existing tool box with additions from the design world.īut HyperWorks isn't the only focus of this expanded agreement. HyperMesh currently offers basic modeling operations in the geometry, but if substantial geometric modifications are necessary, it's often simpler to just import those new geometries rather than manually making changes.Īltair expects the integration of Parasolid to improve this situation because it will implement CAD-like geometry operations directly within the HyperMesh interface. The focus of the Parasolid deployment falls on HyperMesh-Altair's finite element pre-processor. This has led Altair Engineering to expand its software license agreement with Siemens PLM Software to include the deployment of the geometry engine Parasolid Designer throughout its product line, making any Parasolid advantage an advantage of their own.Īltair first became a Parasolid licensee in 2008 with the acquisition of solidThinking, and after comparing it to other geometry engines, the company has decided to build it into their entire HyperWorks suite.
“Assimilation” may have taken on a negative connotation for those familiar with the Borg, but dystopian sci-fi examples aside, assimilation is at the core of any business looking to keep ahead of the competition.
