HyperView Interfacing
When you select a model or results file, HyperView automatically detects the file type and selects the
proper reader to import the data. If more than one reader claims to support the selected file format, a
dialog listing those readers is displayed. From this dialog, you can select the preferred reader.
To extract only a selected set of results, use the external translator HvTrans to create an h3-D file.
Solver Interface Support
HyperView supports result files created from the LS-DYNA 3D (solver input file is also supported, but
limited to the keyword interface) and LLNL-DYNA d3plot using the .d3plot file format.
Calculating the Supported Result "pressure"
For the supported result "pressure", the pressure is generated by the average of the 3 global
stresses:
Pr = -(StressX + StressY + StressZ) / 3.0
