Altair HyperLife Weld Certification 2025.1 Release Notes

Enhancements

Improvement in Table Management by Assigning Default Tables to Detected Weldlines
HyperLife Weld Certification 2025.1 reduces the number of tables created for each weldline upon applying regulation.
Previously, separate tables (Evaluation Distance, General, and Location) were created and assigned to each weldline individually, resulting in large numbers of tables for model with many weldlines. In 2025.1, HyperLife Weld Certification now assigns default shared tables to all weldlines. These tables are differentiated based on weld type (T, L, Cross, Multiple, B, and Overlap). The update improves the time taken in applying regulations in models with large number of weldlines and allows easy table management. Individual weldlines can still be reviewed and updated to create independent tables specific to the weldline.
Derived Loadcase for Regulation Based Welded/Unwelded Batch Evaluation
Load Combination File (.lcf) is supported in the Run Setup file (.xml) used in regulation-based batch evaluation.
