Altair HyperWorks vs. Simcenter Femap

Engineering firms and companies with needs for multiple disciplines of analysis capabilities on a regular basis will benefit from HyperWorks. Companies with short term engineering needs (less than 6 months) or who only need a particular analysis/simulation discipline may be better off using a consultant (who likely uses HyperWorks).

• Simcenter Femap is well linked with NX Nastran such that the .dat file can be manipulated from within the software
• The API interface makes it highly automatized

• 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)

Because HyperWorks, HyperMesh is best

• 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
