Tdyn reference manual


Problem files description

As Tdyn is designed for use with a graphical pre- and postprocessing environment based in the Custom GiD system [[13]], the geometry of every analysed problem with Tdyn has to be created or imported into the PREPOST module.

Then the Tdyn problemtype needs to be defined to the problem (use Data > problemtype menu option as shown in Figure 2).

When the project is saved with a name ProblemName, the program creates a folder called ProblemName.gid that contains a number of files. This folder appears to the system as a project file.

The ProblemName.gid directory contains (at least) the following files:

File name

Description

 

ProblemName.geo

ProblemName.msh

ProblemName.cnd

Boundary conditions definition

ProblemName.lin
