Highlights


The features of HyperStudy 14.0.130 are focused on more efficient and effective design exploration.  Highlights include substantial improvements to the DOE methods, superior versions of a popular optimizer, and the freedom to customize the environment.

 

hmtoggle_arrow1Displayed Tab and User Profiles

The user environment can be customized to show a subset of all available tabs.  Individual tabs can be turned on or off and several pre-defined profiles are defined out of the box.  Now you can set the interface to only see the tabs you frequently use.

 

hmtoggle_arrow1New DOE Methold MELS

Modified Extensible Lattice Sequence is a new space filling method for design of experiments.  Extensibility means it can be used to add runs to an existing DOE.  This should encourage an incremental approach to DOE because additional runs can be added if the initial set is determined to be insufficient.

 

hmtoggle_arrow1Fractional Factorial DOE Redesign

Fractional Factorial design of experiments has been re-formulated to be based on the desired user resolution.  Instead of picking a design matrix, the user now inputs the resolution and a run matrix is automatically generated to match the problem.  This more logical workflow will improve usability and increase confidence in DOE results.

 

hmtoggle_arrow1ARSM Optimization Enhancements

The ARSM optimizer can take advantage of multi-execute.  Furthermore, the iteration histories of ARSM are redefined to be more consistent with the rest of HyperStudy.  These optional features improve the usability of ARSM and make it work more efficiently on modern computing systems.

 

hmtoggle_arrow1Parallel Coordinate Plot Filters

The parallel coordinate plot is enhanced to support multiple data filtering windows.  Filters can be drawn on the plot or controlled with precision via direct input tables.  This tool makes understanding trends in complex data sets a much easier task.

 

hmtoggle_arrow1Model Resources

Models which depend on multiple files can now be explicitly defined.  Static references to files on disk or dynamic links to solver results can be created.  This improves portability of complex models and introduced the ability to link models based on the output file of one model as an input to another model.

 

hmtoggle_arrow1New Operator Model

This new model type can be used to drive a process without having to write an input file, such as a parameterized file.  This specialized utility-like model type can be used in modular workflows and to reduce the frequency of one-time scripts.

 

hmtoggle_arrow1Other Enhancements
Filter on correlations (2D scatter) based on threshold values.
Improved DOE methods’ support for discrete and categorical variables.
Taguchi arrays for DOE.
Inclusion matrix for DOE to concatenate data.
Controls for the precision of numeric values displayed in cells.
User defined perturbation size controls for SQP and MFD optimizers.
Option to skip applying correlation matrix to Stochastic matrix generation.
Batch argument to save the run folders in an archive
Beta functionality for CEDRAT model type

 

hmtoggle_arrow1Resolved Issues
Avoid sleep mode when running jobs on Windows.
MotionSolve is the default solver for MotionView models.
The default suggested number of runs for some space filling DOEs has changed.

 

hmtoggle_arrow1Notes
This will be the last release which contains the DSS post-processing module.
