Engineering Solutions uses the proprietary (.hm) format for database files which include geometry, meshing, connectors, loads and forces, materials, and everything else that is necessary to pre-process a model prior to sending it to a solver.

In addition, Engineering Solutions can import and export Connectors, Finite Element models, Geometry and multiple Engineering Solutions models, and can also export HyperView 3d (h3d) files.
