The objective of this fourth edition of the GiD Conference is to bringing together users and developers of the GiD pre/post processing system in order to exchange ideas and exprerience on the generation of data for computer simulation and the graphic visualisation of numerical results. The first three conferences were held in Barcelona on February 2002, February 2004 and March 2006.
The meeting is organised in a conference format including oral presentations, and discussion on advances in the development and applications of GiD to different fields in engineering and science and identify future directions for research and practice.
Sessions related to specific areas related to GiD will be complemented by Keynote Lectures on targeted research topics in the field of pre and post processing given by international experts. |

Contributions are welcomed on any development and application of GiD. The following list gives an indication of the topics addressed in the conference:
- Interface with CAD data (IGES, VDA, DXF, etc)
- Point generation. Discrete element generation. Meshless methods.
- Numerical methods (finite elements, finite volumes, finite differences, discrete elements, particle methods etc)
- Parallel remote and grid computing
- Interface of GiD with commercial codes (Nastran, Ansys, LS-DYNA, etc)
- Visualisation of numerical results (streamlines, isosurfaces, vectors, beam diagrams, etc)
- Animations of graphical results (simple and combined results, MPEG, AVI, VRML formats)
- Fast visualization via GPUs
- Applications of GiD in science and engineering (GIS, hydrology, geotechnics, multi-physics, CFD, food processes, structural analysis, electromagnetics, physics, chemistry, bio-medical engineering, etc)

Course describing the features of the lastest version of GiD will be held on May 7th 2008.
Course: a 6 hours course covering a whole simulation process.
Content: How to create a model, apply conditions, materials, meshing settings. Launch a simulation and postprocess the results. How to create new customised windows. Key parameters when importing models from other CADs. Etc.. Enphasis will be placed on participants' demands.
The courses includes a “hands on” tutorial on PC’s in order to following and apply the different course topics. To follow the tutorials participants will have to bring their own personal computer.
Course fees
Course: 100 € Combined course + conference fees
Delegates: 250 €
Student: 200€ |
