Not all software tools cost the same number of Units to run. Basic pre-and post-processing (HyperMesh) consumes relatively few Units. High-performance solvers—such as (crash/impact), OptiStruct (structural optimization), or AcuSolve (CFD)—consume a higher number of Units per session. Altair charges for parallel processing
