Altair HyperWorks vs. Tines

HyperWorks allows you to do structure analysis fast and precisely. Then, it also have the option of you to run optimization, Optistruct is a good solver and built in to the interface. The GUI sometimes can be overwhelming, because of it provides too much of features, it is pretty distracted and confused what will be the best option to perform analysis.

• All-inclusive software suite
• Wide breadth of capabilities and custom scripting
• Highly efficient and scalable solvers/computation

Incentivized

• User interface is improving, but not always intuitive; varies across tools
• Steep learning curve
• Cost may be out of reach for some, but relatively inexpensive if you need all the tools it includes (vs. paying for each tool individually)

Incentivized

HyperWorks is far more capable than SOLIDWORKS Simulation offering more simulation solutions for more accurate analysis. The solvers are also more efficient so you get results faster and reduce time to market.

Incentivized

• An all in one solution keeps costs down if you need multiple analysis capabilities (FEA, CFD, MBD, etc.)
• Analysis work supports our other engineering/design work we wouldn't otherwise receive
• Fast and efficient solvers leads to higher throughput
