Course Overview
- In this course, you will learn about basics of TCL.
- You will get an overview of Hypermesh Window and creating buttons by using the TCL.
- You will be creating a TCL macro to resolve the preprocessing problems such as symmetry, renumbering for elements and components, etc.
- You will also be generating reports for the given file creating a TCL macro for spot weld and rigid connections.
- After completing the course you will develop expertise in writing code for HyperMesh using TCL/TK and are well on the road to be a CAE automation engineer for HyperMesh.
Course Syllabus
On a daily basis we talk to companies in the likes of Tata Elxsi and Mahindra to fine tune our curriculum.
Week 1 - Get to know your tools
- In this module, you will learn HyperMesh GUI, what is TCL compiler and hands-on practice of the TCL commands in Notepad++
- HyperMesh GUI overview

- Notepad ++
- “Hello World” TCL code
Week 2 - Let’s learn a new language
- In this module, you will learn TCL commands like loops, arrays and how TCL is linked with HyperMesh
- Looping structures
- Array manipulation
- TCL wiki
- HyperMesh and TCL linkage
Week 3 - Dissecting HyperMesh using TCL commands
- In this module, you will learn several commands and how they can be used in HyperMesh to perform operations
- “ * ” and “hm_” commands
Week 4 - Let’s build the GUIs with TK
- In this module, you will learn how to build a GUI using TK for the TCL command used in HyperMesh
- Introduction to TK
- Creating TK popup box
- Creating TK buttons
- Creating TK input boxes
Week 5 - Problem of normal
- In this module, you will be able to understand the problem of normals in pre-processing and how it will affect the results in a simulation. You will also learn how to automate to align the normal in a few quick mouse clicks.
- Element normals and their significance
- Fixing normals: code vs. standard
Week 6 - Let’s take care of “zero”
