Welcome to the reference for the HyperX Solver Application Programming Interface.

Fundamentally, a Solver criterion takes an ICriterionInput and returns an AnalysisResult. One or many criteria communicate their configuration to HyperX via an implementation of the abstract CriterionModule. All criteria in a module are displayed together in a HyperX Failure Mode.

The following diagram describes analysis criteria in the context of the HyperX Solver. Solver supports both panel and beam analysis.
