Re: Comparing meshes : Duplicate vs No-duplicate

Hello, the mesh of the surfaces should be the same, independently on if they have the 'duplicate' mesh criteria applied or not. This behaviour is the same for all the surface meshers (Rfast or Rsurf). It is not the case of linear and quadratic meshes. The meshes should be very similar (even exactly ...

Re: Pre-Postprocess visualization crash

There is not a limit in the number of elements to be treated by GiD. The only limit is the memory of the computer where GiD is installed. This should be a bug, or maybe your model is somehow corrupted. Could you please give us access to the model in order to try to reproduce this problem? ABEL

Re: Mesher Quality: RSurf vs RFast

You have also the option to set the 'Smoothing' level in the meshing tab of the preferences window. It may improve (depending on your geometry) the quality of the elements automatically, after generating the mesh.

Re: Skipping entities using Rjump mesher

Hello, it is not possible to skip surfaces when meshing using GiD. The only entities which can be skipped are points (between lines) and lines (between surfaces). For this reason, one line shared by more than two surfaces (a line with a higherentity value higher than 2) cannot be skipped, because th...

Re: Nastran interface errors - NEI Nastran now Autodesk Nast

Dear user,

Unfortunately, there are no plans to update the Nastran interface in short term.

We will try to have a look at these problems and see if we can fix them and come back to you.

Re: Regular meshing

I'm not sure I've understood well you. May be you are asking to use the so called ContactVolumes. This entities ensures you have a relationship one-to-one between two surface meshes.
You can see how they are created in help: Geometry->Create->Contact.
