Welcome to the New Altair Aerospace Coffee Break Series!

Learn and Explore on Your Coffee Break with Altair's Experts

This complimentary series is comprised of 30-minute online demonstrations covering Altair's solutions, starting with our structural model building technology, Altair HyperMesh, giving users unparalleled meshing control, unmatched performance and limitless scale. From there, we will expand into structural optimization, electromagnetic simulation, data analytics, AI powered engineering, computation fluid dynamics (CFD), multi-physics, and more. 

Each demonstration will be conducted by Altair's aerospace and defense technical experts, who combine a vast array of industry experience with input from Altair's development teams, providing unparalleled insight into the present and future of aerospace simulation and analysis. 

The series is offered at NO COST to all members of the aerospace community interested in learning more about Altair's solutions, with all sessions made available to re-watch on Altair's YouTube channel.

Upcoming Sessions:

Midsurfacing-and-Mapping-Thickness-1

HyperMesh Geometry Editing

May 14, 2025

11:00 AM - 11:30 AM (UTC -04:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)

In this demonstration we will look at the various tools for editing geometry to better aid with meshing in Altair HyperMesh.

Midsurfacing

HyperMesh Midsurfacing and Mapping Thickness

May 28, 2025

11:00 AM - 11:30 AM (UTC -04:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)

In this demonstration we will look at the process for generating a midsurface from some solid source geometry and how to automatically assign thicknesses to the surface mesh, based on the source geometry.

Midmeshing-in-HyperMesh

Midmeshing in HyperMesh

June 11, 2025

11:00 AM - 11:30 AM (UTC -04:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)

In this demonstration we will look at the midmeshing process for automatically generating a mesh at the midplane location of a part, directly from the input geometry (components, elements, solids or surfaces), without first creating a midsurface, saving significant time over the traditional midsurface-based approach.
