Do you have two approaches: 1- A single surface shared by both volumes 2- Two different surfaces, and some restriction to create the 'same nodes' for this surfaces (two nodes but in the same location) I recommend you the first approach because it can be difficult to handle a complicated shape with overlapped entities. (in any case you can try to force the same mesh creating a GiD contact volume) The problem for you is the definition of conditions. Instead to use the same condition name for both surfaces, maybe you can declare two different conditions, something like this CONDITION: Surface_C1 CONDTYPE: over surfaces CONDMESHTYPE: over face elements CANREPEAT: No QUESTION: Some_Field VALUE: 0 ... END CONDITION CONDITION: Surface_C2 CONDTYPE: over surfaces CONDMESHTYPE: over face elements CANREPEAT: No QUESTION: Some_Field VALUE: 0 ... END CONDITION Note the line CANREPEAT: No Because this declaration (is the default option), this condition can't be repeated twice on th same entity. If you try to assign again, the previous one is ovewritten. Another option is to declare only one condition, but declare that can be repeated multiple times over the same entity, something like this CONDITION: Surface_C CONDTYPE: over surfaces CONDMESHTYPE: over face elements multiple CANREPEAT: Yes QUESTION: Some_Field VALUE: 0 ...

[GiDlist] Pressure load over Triangle
Send by: Enrique Escolano It seems that do you want the condition applied over the whole triangle element (because you are trying to write three connectivities) Then you must define the condition 'over body elements' (asa you did) and write the element connectivities with *elemsconec instead *globalnodes. Globalnodes is used to write the element face (an edge for a triangle) with the condition over face elements On the other hand, you said that CondNumEntities == 0 !! Try to graphically draw and list the elements with this condition from the Conditions window (to know what's really assigned) Are you sure that do you have triangles in your mesh ? By default, if you mesh a volume with tetraedra, its triangle surfaces are not generated. You must explicitly say that do you want this triangles (Meshing->Mesh criteria->Mesh an select the surfaces) Regards Enrique Escolano ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jani Kosonen" <...

Send by: Smith, Mark Hi Miguel Thanks for the answer. I have recently had a problem, I imported an iges file which was a set of surfaces enclosing a single volume (as shown by GiD) I deleted the volume and surfaced meshed the surface. My analysis program then used this mesh file for a structural analysis which showed that some of the edges were not stitched? (as they flew apart) Hence my question. I have also noticed that the imported iges will not render properly, some surfaces don't show, but they appear as surfaces when viewed in normal mode & when meshed, renders OK? Could this be a related problem. I have found that there is nothing I can do to repair the model in GiD to solve the render problem but if I export as iges file & re import all surfaces render OK, spooky!

GiD inherits all the fonts capabilities from TK and TK inherits

Tile is related to the look of the widgets but not to the fonts.
The difference in TK8.5 related to fonts is that it now uses the
anti-aliased text under X11, a font engine from X11 that provides
higher qualities fonts.
Next GiD version will use TK8.5 and will take advantage of them.

I have done an structural analysis using large displacement (triangular) shell elements, I now want to create simplified geometry from the deformed mesh data. I can use Enrique's method to produce new geometry of the part with triangle surfaces. These triangles will on average have a lower quality measure than the original undeformed mesh.

Maybe you can modify a little our old Ansys55 problemtype to export a file that can be read by the current Ansys11 program. If do you have some sample file with the /prep7 Ansys command that Ansys11 expects, you can modify our ansys55_3d.bas GiD template in order to obtain the same.

Send by: Roberto Marivela Colmenarejo Buenas tardes a todos.
En primer lugar agradecer los buenos resultados que nos ha dado la
resolución del problema planteado la ocasión anterior y,
seguidamente planteo otra duda respecto al postprocesamiento de nuestro
modelo de partículas.
Hemos generado las mallas en cada instante de tiempo y las propiedades de
cada partícula en el intervalo correspondiente, pero
lo que no ocurre es que GiD únicamente lee la última malla y aplica las
propiedades de los elementos de las mallas de los instantes anteriores
a la única que lee, incluso llega a hacer la animación de las propiedades
pero sólo sobre la última malla.
En definitiva encontramos problemas en conseguir que GiD lea todas las
mallas de cada instante y asociarlas a las propiedades de

[GiDlist] information about partitionning
Send by: sylvain waré Hello, I would like to partition the mesh that I have defined with Gid in order to work on it with different processor. I think I have red it in the notice of Gid but I dont succeed in finding where. Have you an idea? Do you know if is it possible? Thank you for your answer, regards, Sylvain Waré. [GiDlist] information about partitionning
Send by: Enrique Escolano GiD itself doesn't include any tool to partitionate the mesh (for parallel processing). You can manually separate some geometric or mesh entities in different parts: sending them to a different layer, or assigning different materials of some condition. Then you can write this information in your own way with your problemtype template. A typical code to automatize the mesh partition is 'metis' (it's open source I think), your problemtype can automatically invoke the metis executable (it receives a mesh file as input, and returns another file with his groups of elements), to send the groups of elements to your layers or apply your material/condidion.

Send by: miguel Hello, Were aware of the problem with xdpyinfo and fedora 7, the next installation process will take into account this issue. But related to the problem with the dynamic library, its the first time I heard of it. Ill look into it with a new installation of fedora 8. In the meantime you can try the gid script I send you attached to this mail. I suppose that you gid installation directory is /home/estacion/GID. If not, just change the second line of the script accordingly. If it still give you the message with the xdpyinfo problem, please tell me and try the second script gid2.

Send by: Enrique Escolano Hello Ana, I downloaded the problemtypes that you related, and the calculation solver openSees.exe is depending of the tcl82.dll You must install the Tcl scripting interpreter. Can download a binary version from ActiveState http://downloads.activestate.com/ActiveTcl/Windows/ The oldest version nowadays seems to be the 8.3.3 !! You can try to download and install this version, and as trick, copy the tcl83??.dll into the openseesQuad.gid directory, and rename it to tcl82.dll Then probably you will be able to run openSees.exe with the tcl file as input. You can try to start it outside GiD, from a DOS console openSees.exe "yourfile.tcl" If it works a .post file must be created Note: don't try to use the 8.5.x Tcl version, because it is too modern for the openSees.exe compilation, you can also try to find a more recent openSee.

Send by: Julian E. Mindel Dear GiD people,
I have come accross a problem that somehow seems simple, and
yet I cannot get rid of (or cannot find how). I have created a problem
type. This problem type contains 20 conditions. In the .bas file , all
I do is list the nodes (and coordinates), then the connectivities, and
finally the 20 sets of face Global nodes (1 per each condition). My
problem comes from the fact that all the last 20 sets are written
correctly in the output of the template, however Face 1 (the comment) is
followed by two empty lines ... and Face 2 is followed by one empty
line. Here is an example:

This is very strange behaviour, as those empty lines are unexpected, and
seem to decrease as I decrease the number of existing conditions (this
problem seems to disappear if I have only 5 conditions). No matter what
I do to the .bas file, I cannot get rid of these two lines of output.
I have attached a simple version of this problem type, a project, and
"hello.dat" is the output.
Notice that the rest of the "Face Element nodes" in "hello.dat" are
written fine.. without any spaces at the beginning. I thought it could
be something to do with *Canrepeat.. but it is set to YES in the
conditions file. I double checked the number of entities for each
condition set, and they match the output of the respective loops. So it
looks like the spaces are spurious.
I hope any of you who may have come accross with this problem or know
the proper way around it might be able to help me.

Send by: Enrique Escolano Hello Julian, This is a bug, we are going to fix it. The problem only appear if your problemtype defines a condition name that match the "left part" of other condition name. e.g. in your case, "1" match the start of "10", and both conditios can be confused (because GiD accept commands in an abreviated way) It is highly recommended to avoid to use two condition names with this kind of matching !! The same limitation can be applied to material names and also to field names inside a condition/material. To avoid the problem, instead "1" to "9" you can use for example "01" to "09" Regards Enrique Escolano ----- Original Message ----- From: Julian E. Mindel To: ... [GiDlist] empty lines..

Send by: sylvain waré hello, excuse me, I have a question which could seem stupid, but what the unit with GID? can we change this-one? Thanks, regards, Sylvain [GiDlist] gid & unit
Send by: Enrique Escolano Hello Sylvain, GiD itself doesn't has units, they can be defined if necessary at problemtype level - Some simple problemtypes doesn't use units: the user is responsible to enter all magnitudes in a coherent way. e.g lengths in m, forces iin N, pressures in N/m^2, etc and the results will be in the same units, e.g displacements in m, stresses in N/m^2 - Other problemtypes manage units by themselves, some fielsd are labels to declare the used unit, and the solver read this strings and do all needed conversions - Finally other problemtypes are using the 'GiD units' special field #UNITS# and an 'problemtype'.uni file to define transformation factors. In problemtypes that use units, you probably must declare the model units, from the menu: Data->Data Units... (this menu won't exist if the problemtype is not loaded or not use units) You can also scale the model to fit with the units that you want. regards Enrique Escolano ----- Original Message ----- From: "sylvain waré" <...

Send by: HEMMI, Shigeru Hello, First of all, thanks for the answer of my question titled "Simultaneous displaying vectors if both Prisma and Hexahedra elements exist." very recently. I have another request. Quote from GiD manual: "When using results defined over gauss points, they are extrapolated to the nodes. So discontinuities can appear between adjacent elements." I agree that discontinuities between adjacent elements of gauss results are mathematically correct and basically praise this feature without hesitation. However, as you know, many customes often want to draw continuous contour lines even for gauss results (it is often 1 center result). Although extrapolating gauss results to nodal ones are always not correct from mathematical viewpoint, many competetive post processors can do it with sacrificing correctness. Please consider a case which made only from tetra elements and having vector results at element centers, I was not able to draw any contour plot(I often want to plot contour lines on cut plane). I eagerly ask CIMNE to add a feature so that one can draw "incorrect" contour lines especially on cut plane from only gauss resuls. Regards, ...

[GiDlist] DOS window
Send by: Enrique Escolano We are hidding this "ugly" DOS console, then it looks more like a single package instead two separated programs. To see your process information you can use, as you said, the View process info window. You must "say" GiD the file name with your "process information" with an special comment in the .windows.bat file: e.g imagine that your solver is writtin this information in a file with the same name as the current model and with extension .log, then you must put this in your bat file rem OutputFile: %2\%1.log and if your solver detect some error, can write if for example in a file .err and let you know to GiD with this comment: rem ErrorFile: %2\%1.err then if this file exists and it's not void, GiD will show the contents in an error message. Note. It's more recommended that your program write the process information in a file (like the .log file) , but if you are only writting to the standard output (console) and you don't want to change your program, can redirect this output to a file with ">" (send to a new file) or ">>" (append if the file exists) inside your code it's also recommended to invoke a flush command after write something to the log file, to force the internal buffers to write its contents to the file Your .windows.bat file can look like this: rem OutputFile: %2\%1.log rem ErrorFile: %2\%1.err %3yoursolver.exe %2\%1.dat > %2\%1.log Enrique ----- Original Message ----- From: Phillipe D.

Send by: Enrique Escolano Hello Sylvain, It's difficult to say any advice without see your model, Try to assign "compatible" sizes to the geometrical entities. Note: line and surface unstructured sizes are more important than volume sizes, because we are using an advancing front method, and the boundary size has a lot of influence on the interior size of the mesh. If you are unable to generate the mesh you want, send us the model to test it.

Send by: anjaney vatsal Hi Enrique, If the geometrical figures that I have to draw are stored in a text file in form of coordinates or equations, is there any way to read these input files and then use it for creating figures- even using some other tool/language that GID is compatible with? How can I get id no. of a surface if I am writing a batch file? As the geometries vary, the id nos of surfaces to be selected will differ. For general case, I have been thinking if it is possible to select any entity by specifying conditions. For example, is it possible to chop off part of the plane lying outside a known volume. Can I give some conditional command in this case? The major problem is if it can be done using batch file. Well, I am going through all the methods you told me in your last email but I doubt what I want to do can simply be done using GID only.

Send by: Enrique Escolano There not exists a direct tool to intersect a volume against a surface. You must do this steps:
1- Intersect the cube and the circle surfaces: Geometry->Edit->Intersection->Multiple surfaces (and can select all)
2- The four cube surfaces are not splitted in two parts, you must do it with: Geometry->Edit->Divide->Surface->Split
select the surface and the splitting line. repeat it for the four surfaces.
3- Split the volume: select the volume and the surface that can split it (the square surface that divide it in two parts)

Actually, I don't know how I must proceed to create a tcl file and how it is
accessed for the gid. For example I want to write a information about how
many nodes belongs on a line. To this I wiite a bas template and a called to
a tcl file, as is shown
%%BAS FILE%%%
**LINE_NODES
*set cond Line-Var *nodes *CanRepeat
*set var num=0
*tcl(GetNumLineModel *num)
*for(i=1; i<=num; i=i+1)
*tcl(WriteLineInformarion *i)
*end for

%%TCL FILE%%%
proc GetNumLineModel {num} {
return[GiD_Info Geometry NumLines $num]
}
proc WriteLineInformarion {i} {
return [GiD_Info conditions Line-Var geometry $i]
}
This is a test only, I want to understand the conection beween the tcl file
and the bas file.

[GiDlist] problem in bas fille and tcl
Send by: Enrique Escolano I will comment your code:
*set cond Line-Var *nodes *CanRepeat
This line creates an internal table to provide after access to the information with a *loop nodes onlyincondition at bas level
In your case this information is not used after!!
*set var num=0
create a variable at bas level
*tcl(GetNumLineModel *num)
invoke the GetNumLineModel procedure with the current value of num = 0 as input parameter.
proc GetNumLineModel {num} {
return[GiD_Info Geometry NumLines $num]
}
The procedure is wrong, the syntax, because "GiD_Info Geometry NumLines" doesn't has any more parameter like $num
It seems that you want to set the 'num' bas variable with the value of the procedure !!
bas variables and tcl variables are not related each other
It is possible to set a bas variable with the value returned by a tcl procedure, but only if the returned value is a number, with something like this
set var num=tcl(GetNumLines)
Usually you can't assign the returned value of a tcl procedure to a .bas variable. The returned value is directly printed to the calculation file
You can do something like this.
.cnd
CONDITION: Line_ID
CONDTYPE: over lines
CONDMESHTYPE: over nodes
QUESTION: ID#FUNC#(NumEntity)
VALUE: 0
STATE:HIDDEN
END CONDITION
This condition with a field #FUNC#(NumEntity) is necessary to have some link between mesh and geometry entities.
You must assign this condition to all geometric lines
and then without any tcl you can use something like this to know the nodes and its line source number
.bas
*set cond Line_ID *nodes *canrepeat
*loop nodes onlyincond
*nodesnum *cond(ID)
*end nodes
you can read this information in your program, and reorder internally as you want
If you can't modify your program, can try to reorder it with a tcl procedure, then you can use something like
*.bas
*tcl(MyGetNodesOfLines)
*.tcl
proc MyGetNodesOfLines { } {
#ask the information of the nodes and its lines and reorder by lines
foreach item [GiD_Info Conditions Line_ID mesh] {
set nodenum [lindex $item 1]
set linenum [lindex $item 3]
lappend NodesOfLine($linenum) $nodenum
}
set res ""
foreach i [lsort -integer [array names NodesOfLine]] {
append res "Nodes of line num $i: [lsort -integer $NodesOfLine($i)]
"
}
return $res
}
I attach a small problemtype with this .cnd, .bas, .tcl files

Send by: Rodrigo Augusto Dear Henrique Escolano, Your suggestion helps me very much. thanks. But I have another doubt. As i am developing a optimization program using Gid as interface to update my design variables, I want to know how can I do to get the information about a selected point of control of a surface that I need to optimize? For example I'd like select a surface get this surface number , specify a control point in the u direction and another in v direction and define the direction that I shoud to control such as x-position or y-position in 2D scenario. So, I can write a output file (using bas file) as : *DESIGN_VARIABLE <number of design variable> <design variable number><geometry entity><ID of the geometry><control point selected in u direction><control point selected in v direction> <label of direction that is been controlled> For example: I have one design variable that is a nurbssurface. The number of this surface is 15 and I should control the x-direction of the control points 5 and 6 respectively in u direction and v direction. So, the output file wrote by GiD must be *DESIGN_VARIABLE 1 1 NURBSSURFACE 15 5 6 X-POS It-s possible do that? Please, how can I do proceed to do that?

Send by: Abel Coll Hello Janneth,
You can use the 'duplicate' option to deal with cracks if you have the
corresponding geometrical entity where the crack will be. When you assign
'duplicate' mesh criteria to an entity, this entity will give two meshes,
one oriented to each sense.
You can see a simple example in the GiD Help (section Mesh->Mesh Criteria).
Regards,
ABEL

I made a model by duplicate option in an element perimeter but always it gives me tension on the crack head although its in the element perimeter. Example I havent been able to make it.

Send by: Abel Coll Hello Janneth,
There is no problem if you want to have the lines or surfaces with
"duplicate" mesh criteria in the perimeter. Thee only thing you have to take
into account is that GiD cannot create a surface if a line owns to it two
times. You may have to split the surface into 2, and assign to some of the
sharing lines the "duplicate" mesh criteria.
Find in the attachment a graphical example which may explain better this
explanation.

ABEL

Send by: Enrique Escolano Hello Jannet, You are right, The end nodes of the 'duplicated lines' are shared, not duplicated. It's well for internal 'cracks', but as you said it's bad for lines cutting the perimeter, because the final node is joining both parts.

Send by: marco paccapelo
Hello
I have a problem to interface GiD and Opensees wile i'm try to assign the comand Fiber Section because i Thougt to assign the fiber values with the material, but in this way i will definy some materials with the same values.
The problem is that Opensees need the number of the section ( $j ), that is differet for each type of section.
The comand that we use in tcl for Opensees is:
section Fiber $j { # SectionTag patch quad $MP $nfp $nfp2 [expr -$l1(j)/2.0] [expr -$dpm/2.0] [expr $l1(j)/2.0] [expr -$dpm/2.0] [expr $l1(j)/2.0] [expr $dpm/2.0] [expr -$l1(j)/2.0] [expr $dpm/2.0] # Mat SubdIJ SubdJK yI zI yJ zJ yK zK yL zL }};
my question is if there is a different way to assign the values of the section, indipendently from material
I thought also to assign these value like conditions, but my problem is in the value $j, that is the ordinal number of the section, but i don't know if exist a comand like *matnum for the condition.
I saw the comand #Mat#(bookName), but i don't understand how it function. anybody have an example with this comand

[GiDlist] Fiber section problem GiD/Opensees
Send by: Enrique Escolano I don't understand well what are you trying to do, but probably you had better using a 'GiD condition' instead a 'GiD material' You can define a condition with a field to store your section identifier, and other fields that can store the material properties (or better a field that point to a material name, that store the common material properties), e.g. BOOK: Properties MATERIAL: Steel ... BOOK:Other_book MATERIAL: Steel ... CONDITION:Fiber CONDTYPE: over lines CONDMESHTYPE: over nodes QUESTION:Section_ID VALUE:0 QUESTION:Made_of#MAT#(Properties) VALUE:some_material END CONDITION You can classify GiD materials by 'book', then GiD menus will show each book in separated menus. You can use materials of a book for special purposes, for example, maybe you only want materials of the book Properties to be used in Fiber condition, QUESTION:Made_of#MAT#(Properties) specify that only this group of materials will be show for this field at runtime.

but now I have some questions, because in the manual i don't find more information about the #mat# command. i saw that if i use it in the *.cmd i can found the
number of the material (*matnum(cond....)) but i cant find the comand for the .bas file to use it because in specific case i need to obtain the number of the
Material that i store.
I prefer to assign, if possible the section like material, because it is assignedto elemens so i need the matnum of each section.
in the bas i need a thing like that
*loop materials
*if(strcmp(MatProp(1),"Sezione")==0)
section Fiber *matnum {patch quad [[Number of the Material stored and select with #mat#]] *MatProp(SubdIJ) *MatProp(SubdJK) *MatProp(yI) *MatProp(zI) *MatProp(YJ) *MatProp(zJ) *MatProp(YK) *MatProp(zK) *MatProp(yL) *MatProp(zL)

*end materials
enougth i thing that assign the sections like materials is better for the user, because he have the possibility to store the sections, without write every time the values.
I dont understand why is better assign the section as a condition and not as a material.

[GiDlist] Tcl script
Send by: Enrique Escolano Some comments:
1- don't use this names for your variables or window names, because they are used for some GiD standard windows
e.g, instead
global ParametricPriv
set w .gid.parametric
InitWindow $w "Create Parametric Line" ParametricWindowGeom
can use some like:
global PakkaPriv
set w .gid.pakka
InitWindow $w [= "Pakka window"] PakkaWindowGeom
2- It's a bad idea to apply conditions directly to mesh entities, it's better to apply to geometric entities and then generate the mesh.
and your if expression "if { [GiD_Info conditions] 5 } " is wrong:
- GiD_Info conditions need more arguments, read GiD help to know this and
- and you need to use some conditional, like if { [GiD_Info conditions ....] == "5" } (read some manual about Tcl syntax)
I really don't understand what are you trying to do.
you can ask GiD for the list of the nodes and its values with the condition Point-Force-Load
GiD_Info conditions Point-Force-Load mesh
and you can apply for example the values $fx $fy $fz to the nodes 1 and 2 (in mesh view) with
GiD_AssignData condition Point-Force-Load Nodes "$fx $fy $fz" "1 2"
or also with this through the GiD process loop:
GiD_Process Mescape Data Conditions AssignCond Point-Force-Load Change $fx $fy $fz 1 2

didn't happen anything.
proc BeforeMeshGeneration { elementsize } {
set numpoints [GiD_Info Geometry NumPoints]
set numlines [GiD_Info Geometry NumLines]
set numsurfaces [GiD_Info Geometry NumSurfaces]
GiD_AssignData condition points Keypoint-Var ... 1:$numpoints
GiD_AssignData condition lines Line-Var ... 1:$numlines
GiD_AssignData condition surfaces Surface-Var ... 1:$numsurfaces
}
What is wrong? Please, let me know

[GiDlist] How can I apply a automatic condition before mesh generation?
Send by: Enrique Escolano The GiD_AssignData condition tcl command has as arguments the condition name, and then the type of entity to be applied (points, lines, etc)
you have reversed this two parameters!!
and then the values ... as a single item (off course the number of values must be the same as the number of questions of the condition definition)
finally a item with the entities selection. As trick you can use "end" for the last entity number, then it's unnecessary to ask for the amount on entities,
Another detail: maybe the last entity identifier is greater than the amount of entities (e.g. when deleting some entity),
instead [GiD_Info Geometry NumPoints] you must had to use [GiD_Info Geometry MaxNumPoints]
Concluding you can use something like this (using off course your own condition values)
proc BeforeMeshGeneration { elementsize } {
GiD_AssignData condition Keypoint-Var points {3 1 5} 1:end
GiD_AssignData condition Line-Var lines {45 1 12} 1:end
GiD_AssignData condition Surface-Var surfaces {27 4 8.5} 1:end

Send by: Enrique Escolano Probably the runtime error was caused, as you said, for a limitation of RAM How much physical memory do you have? Are you using a 32 or a 64 bits GiD version? A 32bits program can only handle about 2-3GB of RAM, if your 32 gid process exceed this amount the system can crash. A 64 bit program can in theory handle a lot more, but in practice you probably doesn't have a lot a RAM nowadays.

The problem is that you don't know when exists a "close point" to provide 'old' as answer to the possible GiD question. It's recommended when importing batchs to set the "Create new point" preference to 'always', to be possitive that GiD create a new point in the specified coordinates, without ask nothing. You can also use Join (or FJoin to avoid an error if it is already in join state) and specify the entity id, not its coordinates It can be difficult to know the 'old entity id', but you can assume that each new entity increase by one the higher entity id e.g. escape escape escape escape utilities variables CreateAlwaysNewPoint 1 escape escape escape escape geometry create line 15,40,0 0,40,0 escape escape escape escape geometry create line fjoin 1 15,17.8192,0 ... or you can create the lines duplicating the points, and before create the surface join this points with a collapse of lines (in general is unrecommended use funtions like collapse in a batch, because you miss the control of the entities id's, collapsing some entities can be deleted or created) ----- Original Message ----- From: anjaney vatsal To: ...

Send by: Enrique Escolano Hi Martin, Your mesh is relivelly simple, I've read your stl as a mesh, and manually edited to delete the triangles that are visually bad (the joins of pipes, and some tops), I deleted this bad triangles, and created other better (to have at least a closed volume). To created manually triangles I used as trick the enclosed 'CreateMesh' problemtype that add a toolbar to create this triangles. I attach the corrected triangulation, exported again as stl (test1_corrected.stl) You can now import it as surfmesh without problems (I tried to create a volume and meshed it with size=0.1 without any problem) Regards Erique Escolano ----- Original Message ----- From: "MArtin Koske" <... [GiDlist] Problem with Uncollapse Volumes
Send by: anjaney vatsal Hi I am having some problem with the command Uncollapse volumes. When I use it with two blocks it works well. But when the number of blocks increases say 4 then it does not work. Infact, Gid stops responding. I am using windows. Basically I have to draw few polyhedra attached to each other at their vertices using batch file and I have got all the coordinates. All volumes are drawn in the sequence of line->surafce->volume. But hese volumes( or polyhedra) have common vertices. Now finally I wanted to uncollapse all the vloumes so that these vertices are duplicated. But I am not able to find out why such strange thing is happening. If it cannot be done in this way, is there any alternative to draw polyhedra.

Send by: Helver Mauricio Barrera Cardenas Dear Sir. I'm a thus far satisfied GiD user, and now I am interested in performing adaptive meshing. Following the book of Zienkewicz et al, in is clear that after a first analysis using a standard mesh-like the one presented in the GiD user's guide- a new element size h is computed for each element, then this value is used to compute an averaged value of h to the nodes of the current mesh, and then this one is used as background mesh to generate the new mesh, upon which a new, improved analysis is performed. I have computed these new values of h to each node of the initial mesh; yet, I haven't been able to find a way to tell GiD to take these values and carry out remeshing. Is there a straightforward manner of doing this with GiD? I'd be very grateful if you could help me out with this one. Thanks for your attention.

[GiDlist] Outputing conditions
Send by: Edwin Nyirenda Dear sirs,
When a volume is discretised into a number of elements, the surfaces of the elements will inherit conditions from the surfaces of the parent volume. How can I loop through the elements and output the faces as well as the conditions for tetrahedra elements? Something like
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
Faces
Total: *Operation(4*nelem)
Face |Elem |Node Stat Value |Node Stat Value |Node Stat Value |
*set elems(tetrahedra)
*Set var face=0
*Set Cond Flux
*loop elems
*set var face=face+1
*set var Nod1=elemsconec(1)
*set var Nod2=elemsconec(3)
*set var Nod3=elemsconec(2)

''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
where *cond(1) and *cond(2) takes a different value for each of the four faces of an element and should be equal to zero for a face without any condition set.
Your assistance in this matter will be highly appreciated.

Send by: marco paccapelo
Hi to all
I still work on GiD interface to Opensees. I'm Working to use GiD for Masonry ( work that have the priority for my thesis) and for Shear ( with an other master thesis )
I'm using GiD 9,02 in evaluation Versions, but at university we have the license for the 8.
I occurred in a problem wile assign fiber section proprieties.
I tried, as you suggested, to select the combination with a condition. I used these impostation.

section Fiber 23 {

}
these is exactly write as I need, but Opensees seems to not accept to store fiber with the same number of identification ( these is also not very good for the output, that have definited fiber as the number of the elements with these condition.
So now I follow the way to assign the combination as a materials, and these seems to have more possibilities to work as we need.
**bas
*loop materials
*set var mio=matprop(Section,real)
*matnum *mio
*loop materials *notused
*if(strcmp(Matprop(0),"Sezione")==0)
*matnum *matprop(1) *matprop(3) *matprop(4) *matprop(5) *mio

*if(strcmp(Matprop(0),"Materiale")==0)
*matnum *matprop(1) *matprop(3) *matprop(4) *matprop(5)

*end materials
*end materials
**mat Is the same as I wrote before with the combination material

VALUE: Materiale
END MATERIAL
these material is the only that is applied to elems
my problem is that I have a problem to assign the value to a Variable
in my cade I need to assign to the variable ( in the example the varname is “mio” that should report the name of the material that is selected in the Material “C1”. The var report an error if written
*set var mio=matprop(Section)
the error is: Command: matprop must be defined INT or REAL
Error into an *Operation expression in set var
well I wrote in the bas file
*set var mio=matprop(Section,real) or *set var mio=matprop(Section,int)
but it give me a value assigned to the variable “mio” as “0” , but I need that it report the name of the material or of the Section that I want to put in the combination
in the code that I reported in the bas I forced the loop on the Not Used materials to select predefined sections, but I hope that with the variable I could select it automatically.
The result of the bas that I wrote is
1 0
2 Cemento 5 8 5
3 Sezione 4 4 4 0
enough I dont understand why the software invert the selection of the materials, the *mio that report the 0 value is written in the second line in the bas file, but in the result file is in the last.
So there is a way to assign to a variable a name instead to a number?
If I assign the combination as a material, in the output file I have only the section/materials that I need and there are not duplicated.
Thanks for help!!!

Send by: Enrique Escolano I assumed that you have defined the 'Flux' condition as CONDTYPE: over surfaces CONDMESHTYPE: over face elements You can do a loop over the faces with this condition applied with: *Set Cond Flux *loop elems onlyincond *ElemsNum *GlobalNodes(1) *GlobalNodes(2) *GlobalNodes(3) *Cond(1) *Cond(2) *end elems GlobalNodes returns the nodes of the face. This loop will only output the faces with condition, you can't ask for the Cond field of other faces without this condition applied!!

Send by: Edwin Nyirenda Thank you very much for your reply. I have been waiting for it eagerly. The background to my problem is that I am trying to implement the boundary element theory in a finite element sense, ie element by element. In this case it is necessary to repeat *cond(1) *cond(2) for the three nodes, because other faces may share the same nodes but will have different conditions. The flux condition has been defined as follows: NUMBER: 2 CONDITION: Flux CONDTYPE: over surfaces CONDMESHTYPE: over face elements QUESTION: FluxStatus VALUE: 0 QUESTION: FluxValue VALUE: 0 END CONDITION For elements that are completely internal, I appreciate that no conditions will be set, but I need to this information as zeros. There will be boundary elements that will have more than one value of the conditions, since they can share more than just one boundary face.

Dear Jonas,
The only way to generate a mesh without adding extra nodes is to force to
mesh with a size bigger than the surface size. You should set all the lines
as structured (with one division), and set a very big mesh size when you
selecte 'Mesh->Generate'. You should also have to set the 'Automatic correct
Sizes' to NULL (in Utilities->Preferences->Meshing).

Send by: Enrique Escolano You can use GiD 'contact' volume entities, that link two surfaces and force when meshing a node-to-node relationship We don't have any specific tutorial related to contacts, but there is nothing special: the 'contact volume' is like a meshing criteria to have similar meshes in both surfaces and auxiliary elements linking its nodes. You will obtain standard elements, that probably you can separate of the main mesh by the element type (e.g. you can mesh standard volumes with tetraedra and obtain prisms or line elements for the contact volumes, and use it to know couples of nodes) Sincerely Enrique Escolano ----- Original Message ----- From: Rodrigo Augusto To: ...

Send by: Helver Mauricio Barrera Cardenas Dear Sir. Is it possible to somehow divide a quadrilateral mesh into a triangular one? I ask this because only triangular background meshes are allowed, yet I'm trying to apply an adaptive meshing scheme from data obtained on a quadrilateral mesh. If this is possible, I suppose that once I get the new mesh, I should be able to merge triangles back together so as to recover a quadrilateral mesh and then proceed on with an improved analysis. Am I right? Thanks a lot for your help.

Send by: Abel Coll Dear Mauricio,
You can divide a quadrilateral mesh into a triangular one using 'Mesh ->
Edit Mesh->Split Elements -> Quadrilateral->Triangle' option. Once you have
the new triangles they should work as the other triangular meshes, so you
can use them normally as a background mesh.
Note that the quadrilaterals can be splitted in two ways (symmetrically or
not) depending on the option 'Symmetrical structured', which can be set in
'Preferences -> Meshing'.

ABEL

Send by: Enrique Escolano As Abel explained, you can split GiD quadrilaterals into 2 triangles (without add nodes) or 4 triangles (adding a new central node), but probably you don't need to use this tool for your background mesh.

Send by: Adrià Melendo In general, the control points of a nurbs line that belongs to a nurbs surface can't be defined by the control points of the nurbs surface. One case that the control points of the nurbs line and the control points of the nurbs surface could be the same is when the nurbs line is one of the four boundaries of the Untrimmed nurbs surface. In GiD, if you have a untrimmed nurbs surface and you use Geometry->Edit->Divide->Surfaces->Num divisions or Geometry->Edit->Divide->Surfaces->Near Point or Geometry->Edit->Divide->Surfaces->Parameter (almost always excepting simplification, degree reduction, etc..) you would create a nurbs line that have control points equal to the two nurbs surfaces surrounding -- Adrià Melendo, GiD Team _____ De: ...

I want to optimizer the Z and Y direction of the control points 2 and 3 of nurbs lines number 5,6,11,12,13,15,20,22. By topological reason, in my opinion, the control points of the boundary of the surfaces number 2,4,7,9,11,12 should be the sames control points of its boundaries lines. Because, when I input one line, I need to know what are the respective control points of the surface that has this line as boundary. Indirectly, I am selecting this surfaces as design variable too. For example, I input the line 13 and this line has 4 control points, I would wait that the surface number 7 has had this same 4 control points on the boundary, because it is composed by this line in its boundary. Else, the volume will be open when I render the model. Let me know if I have been clear. Sincerely 2008/9/5 Adrià Melendo <... [GiDlist] Nurbs parametrization doubts
Send by: Adrià Melendo I can explain you how to solve this problem but it requires manual work on each surfaces and it's useful just in this case where the surfaces to optimize are planar. The surfaces that you want to optimize (2,4,7,9,11,12) are trimmed, surfaces 2,4,7,9 could be untrimmed but 11 and 12 couldn't be since they have a hole. I attach a possible modification of this surfaces to convert a part of them untrimmed.In the rest of surfaces you will need to destroy the surface and created again by contour using a special option that you could find in right menu "Geometry->Create->NurbsSurface->NoTryPlanar" Doing that you would create untrimmed NurbsSurfaces equal to 2,4,7,9 . Now using "Geometry->Edit->EdNurbsSurf" and "Geometry->Edit->EdNurbsLine" you have to make compatible the knots and the degree of the surface in each direction to mach with boundary lines (in you case, you only need to use "Geometry->Edit->EdNurbsSurf" to make sure that all surfaces have degree 3 in the direction shared with lines that you want to optimize) By using the List Entities option you can check all the information of Nurbs Lines and Nurbs Surfaces.

Send by: Andreas Hauck Dear GiD-team,
we've encountered a problem regarding the interpolation in the
postprocessing of quadrilaterals with 8 nodes: when 7 of the 8 nodes
have e.g. a value of 1 and one corner node a value of -1, the value in
the middle of the quadrilateral gets a value of 1.5 which is clearly
wrong. It seems like GiD calculates a "mean" value for a virtual 9th
node in the middle of the quadrilateral, which somehow has a problem
with the negative value.
I have attached a 1-element example to show the error. We have tried GiD
8 and 9 under Linux.

[GiDlist] Wrong interpolation in 8-noded quadrilaterial
Send by: miguel Hello Andreas, When a serendipity 8 node quadrilateral is used in GiD, GiD calculates de middle node like this: middleNode = 0.5 * ( SumMiddleEdgeNodes - 0.5 * SumVertexNodes) It is not a linear interpolation. This is explained in Eugenio Oñate's book "Cálculo de Estructuras por el Método de Elementos Finitos". On page 204, the Figure 5.21 shows you the behaviour of such an element. If you set one of the middle-edge nodes to -1 and the rest to 1, in the middle node you'll get a '0'. Hope this helps you.

So I am just wondering: are there any limitations with DOS scripts if used from within GID? It seems like whenever I use the DOS command "Set /A", the script starts having problems!!!... I need to increment a variable in a cyclic analysis, and just do not know how to implement it so that it can work with the GID calculate option. I need to implement something like: set /A count = 0 :loop set /A count +=1 ........ code goto loop: P.S. I am suing Windows XP. Your help and guidance would be greatly appreciated... Many Thanks in advance, Moh -- --------------------------------------------- Department of Civil & Geological Engineering University of Saskatchewan 57 Campus Drive Saskatoon, SK CANADA S7N 5A9 Tel: (306) 966 5299 Fax: (306) 966 5427 E--mail: ...

Send by: Enrique Escolano The /A new modifier of the set DOS command is not valid for our command.exe (command.exe is used by GiD as .bat interpreter if exists instead the Windows cmd.exe or command.com) Read GiD help to know our valid syntax (Customization->executing an external program->Commands accepted by the GiD command.exe) http://www.gidhome.com/support_team/gid_toc/gid145.html#CUSTOMIZATION>Executing%20an%20external%20program>Commands%20accepted%20by%20the%20GiD%20command.exe To do sophisticated thinks, you can do it using Tcl syntax, this scripting language is much more powerful that the DOS commands if you write the word "tcl" inside a .bat, then after this keyword GiD expect that the rest of commands are in tcl syntax You can have a .bat file with something like this: rem OutputFile: %2\%1.log rem ErrorFile: %2\%1.err tcl #now this is tcl syntax instead DOS proc mytest { } { #next line is to get the command line arguments %1 %2 %3 from the tcl variable ::argv foreach "- - basename dir problemtypedir -" $::argv break set count 0 set maxcount 10 while ( $count < $maxcount ) { #... code incr count } } mytest Of course you can use an standard .bat file (without any tcl), and invoke your own compiled program that do what you want Regards Enrique ----- Original Message ----- From: "Moh Boulfiza" <... [GiDlist] Export a subset of Results
Send by: Gerhard Link Dear GiD-Team,
is it possible to reduce the result-sets of a binary gid result file?
I would like to reduce the stored results from a 2d simulation to the
results of a group of nodes.
I would like to reduce also the stored physical quantities as well.
I am only interested in the nodal displacements. The stored stress,
velocity, ... i want to delete

The model seems ok and i don't understand where the problem is. I attached the stl and the gid file. This is a very simple file, but i have other with the same problems.

I delete them and all remaining isolated lines an points 4- Then it's possible to create a volume and mesh it. I attach my model.

You should be able to select the text with utilities:dimension:delete. The mouse cursor should change to a double square, then you should be able to select the text label clicking on it. The text should turn red and then you have to press Escape in order to confirm the deleting. Which step doesn't work? Are you using Windows XP 32 or 64 version?

Send by: Zdzislaw Wozniak Hello Enrique, I am new to GiD. I need to create a mesh for two halves of a ring where each half should be meshed differently so the elements on the contact surfaces do not match. So far I've got two layers: called "top" and "bottom" with geometries. When I generate mesh for one layer, the other layer is meshed too. How can I separate the meshing process? Regards, Zdzislaw [GiDlist] Separate mesh for each layer
Send by: Enrique Escolano If do you want not to share the nodes of both parts, must create duplicated (not shared) geometric entities. e.g. if your half rings are two surfaces, then duplicate the "contact" lines to have each surface its own copy. The tool "Geometry->Edit->Uncollapse->Surfaces" can aid you to do it.

[GiDlist] post-processing for 2D problems
Send by: miguel Hello, It's an error that gid displays S11,S22,S12,Sxy, Syz,Sxz,Si,Sii,Siii, should be S11,S22,Szz,S12, Syz,Sxz,Si,Sii,Siii. So to view your results you need to select 'Sxy'. In the meantime, to display the components in gid as you want, you can write ComponentNames "S11" "S22" "" "S12" in the results file. GiD handles all matrices (2D & 3D) as 3D matrices, and this is reflected in the components menu of the matrix result. You're right that if you provide a 2d matrix it should only show the 2d components. This will be taken into account for the next versions.

Send by: Tontavanich, Bituporn Well, say we have a 2D rectangular mesh and would like to select all nodes enclosed by a small rectangular region where we know the coordinate at the corner of the rectangle. Or we want to select all nodes that form a straight line between the two given end-coordinates of the line. So in either case I will first need to locate the nodes close to the corner-coordinates of the rectangle or end-coordinates of the line. Then I may be able to use mouse to select all other nodes within that region. This should be at the user level and not from some Tcl code. Can GiD highlight the node with a specific ID? Say, I want to know where node 10th is located in the mesh. Please follow the link ... [GiDlist] locate node
Send by: Enrique Escolano Now you can select an entity (e.g. a node) by its ID. While selecting, the Join - NoJoin word change between select an old entity (by ID) or point a new coordinate (by x y ?Z?) Can use <Control-a> to swap this mode. You can also signal temporary to an entity o a coordinate with the menu Utilities->Signal , to know where is. An also a trick is to select coplanar nodes while selecting with the command plane:a,b,c,d,r (to filter the nodes that match |a*x+b*y+c*z+d|<r ) e.g. to select the horizontal nodes with y=0.5 with tolerance=1e-5 you must use plane:0,0.5,0,0,1e-5 The option that not exists nowadays is to get an ID of an entity from a coordinate, we are thinking to implement it at Tcl level, and provide some user easy acces from some menu or macro (this tcl procedure can enable the creation of user macros for special selections, like aligned nodes, etc) Regards Enrique ----- Original Message ----- From: Tontavanich, Bituporn To: ...
