What began at NASA 30 years ago has continuously developed into today’s HyperX suite of structural software solutions. As Collier Aerospace’s flagship product, HyperX performs design, stress analysis, and detail sizing optimization for aircraft and space launch vehicles fabricated with composite or traditional metallic materials. On average, the software reduces the weight of structures by 20%, an exceptional achievement for aerostructures. HyperX explores very rapidly a very open design space providing insightful design study trends. On the analysis and certification side, HyperX replaces the need for spreadsheets and “hand calculations” with automatically generated stress reports for FAA certification. HyperX customers are able to produce results faster and more accurately, giving them an edge over competitors.
