Spring for line

Post by marcosasilva »

Hi,

I'm using GiD 10.0.9

Is there a way to apply spring for line into a 3D model?

Otherwise, I need to enter mesh visualization and go node per node applying a spring for node

GiD itself doesn't has the 'spring' concept.
Probably your problemtype is using a 'classic' condition declared over points, over nodes
to represent it and be assigned to points->nodes

If do you want to assing this condition to a geometric line, and be assigned when meshing to all its nodes must create a new condition
over lines, over nodes

Note: the name of the condition cannot be repeated, you can add a prefix 'Point_", and '"Line_", e.g.
Point_Spring
Line_Spring
and the prefix 'Point_' and 'Line_' is hidden in the conditions window, showing visually only 'Spring' for both
