[GiDlist] Problem in .Bas file

Posted: Thu Nov 24, 2005 5:06 pm

It seems that it not exists any element with this condition.
Are you sure that do you have some element have this Localaxes condition applied over them?
Use draw condition when visualizing the mesh.

After apply to geometric surfaces, must generate again the mesh to transfer to the elements.

What type of elements do you have: surface elements (triangles or quadrilaterals) or volume elements (tetrahedras, etc)?

In other hand, your "Localaxes" is only the name of a condition, but don't use the GiD local axes internal concept
(read help about #LA# fields).

Hi.

My .cnd file has

BOOK: Local Axes
NUMBER: 5 CONDITION: Localaxes
CONDTYPE: over surfaces
QUESTION: Rolling_direction_X
VALUE: 1.0
QUESTION: Rolling_direction_Y
VALUE: 0.0
QUESTION: Rolling_direction_Z
VALUE: 0.0
QUESTION: Transverse_direction_X
VALUE: 0.0
QUESTION: Transverse_direction_Y
VALUE: 1.0
QUESTION: Transverse_direction_Z
VALUE: 0.0
QUESTION: Normal_direction_X
VALUE: 0.0
QUESTION: Normal_direction_Y
VALUE: 0.0
QUESTION: Normal_direction_Z
VALUE: 1.0
END CONDITION

When, in bas file i call this values, like this:

**TESTE1
*set cond Localaxes *elems
*if(CondNumEntities(int)0)
*loop elems *OnlyInCond
*ElemsNum *cond(1)
*end
*endif

I don't have any result. Do you know why?

If i do this:

**TESTE1
*set cond Localaxes *elems
*loop elems
*ElemsNum *cond(1)
*end

I have this results:
*TESTE1
1 1.0
2 1.0
3 1.0
4 1.0
5 1.0
6 1.0
7 1.0
8 1.0
9 1.0
10 1.0

But i have assigned for cond(1) the value 2 !!

Thanks.

[GiDlist] use link as problemtypes directory

Posted: Wed Nov 30, 2005 3:22 pm
by Malte Neumann
Hi,

I would like to use a symbolic link as problemtypes directory. On our unix
system this is no problem, but GiD for Windows does not accept the link.

What I would like to achieve is:
We have two PC both with a GiD license and we would like to have the same
problemtypes available on both computers without always synchronizing the
problemtypes directories. Is there any way to achieve this?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Malte

Hello,

Windows has a quite hidden capability for creating sym links for
directories. Go to a recent TCL help and check TCL command:

file link ...

[GiDlist] use link as problemtypes directory

Posted: Wed Nov 30, 2005 6:06 pm

You can create a link from a Tcl command like this (also works for Win NT/2000/XP)

put this line in the GiD lower command line some like this (using your own paths off course), and press return
-np- cd {C:\Program files\GiD\GiD 7.7.2b\problemtypes}; file link -symbolic MyProblemtype.gid {C:\other directory\MyProblemtype.gid}

It will create a link inside the C:\Program files\GiD\GiD 7.7.2b\problemtypes directory, pointing to C:\other directory\MyProblemtype.gid

Note: this link is different of "direct access" Windows links, and it looks like an useful directory, not like a Windows link.

Must be careful, it seems easy to confuse the "real" and "link" directories: if you delete this "link", don't delete
the files inside the "real" directory.

Maybe we can also support "Windows links" for next GiD beta versions.

Regards

Enrique Escolano

[GiDlist] use link as problemtypes directory

Posted: Thu Dec 01, 2005 12:37 pm

Thanks a lot for this advice. It works very well, unfortunately not for
network directories.

Maybe it is also an option to make the problemtypes directory path a user
definable variable (maybe even a list of directories) in future. No need
for links then, one can simply include all directories with problemtypes.

Thanks again.

[GiDlist] changing node numbers

Posted: Thu Dec 01, 2005 2:21 pm
by Georg Haasemann
Hello,
I'm using 8-node volume elements and I would like to (ex)change single
node numbers of the mesh. Is there any easy way to do that or is it
necessary to develop a tcl-routine for that purpose?

Thanks for your help,
Georg

[GiDlist] structured mesh

Posted: Sun Dec 11, 2005 2:06 pm
by Thanasis Makrodimopoulos
Hi,

Is it possible to produce a structured mesh of quadrants
which will be separated into 4 triangles?
(I see that Gid can separate into two triangles)
I use Gid 7.2

[GiDlist] structured mesh

Posted: Mon Dec 12, 2005 9:50 am
by abelcs
Yes, it is possible.
You must check the option Symmetrical Structured Triangles in Preferences-Meshing menu.
I think this option is no available in the GiD version you use (7.2); in this case you must update it from our web:
