Hypermorph

Integrating Hypermorph in the optimization process

HyperMorph setup

The shape variables, a file containing the coordinates of the nodes of the initial shape DESIGN-VARIABLEN.SHP and a file containing the shape modification from the inital shape to the final shape DESIGN-VARIABLEN-dynakey-node.tpl have to be defined in HyperMorph.

LS-OPT setup

The HyperMorph preprocessor can be interfaced with LS-OPT:

Solver Panel


Excerpt from LS-OPT command file:

  prepro hypermorph
  prepro command "/home/appshare/hyper7/altair/scripts/templex"
  prepro input file "DESIGN-VARIABLEN.dynakey.node.tpl"
  prepro output file "nodes.include"

LS-OPT recognizes the names, starting values and bounds of the design variables from the HyperMorph input file and displays them automatically in the variables panel.

During the optimization, LS-OPT generates a file nodes.include for each run containing the coordinates of the nodes with respect to the current shape variable values.
