Hello!
Thank-you. I could finally find it.
However, when I try to "Generate mesh", the program, both GID version
8.1.2b in Windows and GID version 8.1.1b in Linux, breaks down, the
message is, in Linux, "Segmentation fault".
Could it be due to both of them are beta versions?
Thanks again for your time

Thanks for your reply. I answer through your e-mail:

I think that we didn't understand your meaning of "irregularities in

I think that you don't want to say "elements with bad angles or
sizes", and what you want
is that all extruded nodes have exactly the same XY proyection. Is not?
Yes, you are right. I meant just what you have described.
Structured or semi-structured meshes will not generate aligned-like
nodes in the extrusion direction, the algorithm is not a simple
translation, is more general (lateral surfaces can be curved, and
both tops must have the same number of boundaries, but can have
different shape)
Last 8.1.x beta versions have an "special option" to try to force
this alignement if possible, by setting the GiD variable
AlignSemiStructuredNodes to 1
escape escape escape utilities variables AlignSemiStructuredNodes 1
(but your 8.0.8 official version doesn't has this option)
Then, I have just downloaded Gid8.1.2b-win-x32.exe, which is a beta
version but I am not able to find the GiD variable
AlignSemiStructuredNodes and to put it to 1.
Could you say to me where it is exactly?
Thanks in advance and best regards
Isa

Next week we are releasing a new beta version 8.1.3 that also has a
new unstructured quadrilateral meshing algorithm,
Obtained quadrilaterals will have much better shape quality. Can set
this mesher with the variable:
escape escape escape utilities variables QuadrilateralMesher 1

Hello!
First of all, thanks for your reply.
Your are right with the so different size of mesh elements I am using,
but if you, in the previous project I sent you, put "RENDER-normal"
and
put on and off the "layer capa2_a", you can see that different lines
appear (you can see this effect at first sight on the left at the
bottom
with only the "layer capa1_a" on and putting the "layer capa2_a" on and
off, with the view of XY plane).
Do you mean that these irregularities in the mesh is due to my bad size
election?
Again, thank-you very much in advance.
Best regards!

Hi,
If you mean that the elements are quite distorted, i think it's
because you
have assigned element size of '2' for some volumes (layers
'capa1_a' and
'capa1_b' with a height of 0.002) and '4' for others (layers
'capa2_a' and
'capa2_b' with a height of 0.002). Some details of the surfaces
conforming
the volumes is just 0.001. You can see it at 'ig_volume_size_1.png'.
And, for instance, at the layer 'capa1_b', there are surfaces with
element
size assigned of 0.0059 (and the width of the surface is just
0.002) and
just beside them surfaces with element size of 0.000325, 15 times
less, as
you can see in the image 'ig_surface_size_1.png', resulting in the

Asunto: [GiDlist] Semistructured volume
Hello GiD'users!
I have a little problem when I want to create a mesh.
I am working with GID 8.0.8 in Windows.
I attach my project because I don't get to make a good semistructured
volume with structured mesh
in z-direction. You can see the irregularities of the mesh if you use
the XY-plane view and the rotate trackball tool.
I don't know what I am doing wrong. I think I followed correctly the
advice that previous e-mails
gave me but perhaps I am forgetting something.
I would be really grateful if you could cast a glance at it.
Thanks in advance and best regards
Isa

[GiDlist] Semistructured volume
Moderator: GiD Team
[GiDlist] Semistructured volume
GiD 8.1.2 is crashing because you are using the new quadrilateral mesher
You must set the old quadrilateral mesher (value=0)
escape escape escape utilities variables QuadrilateralMesher 0
And activate the align nodes option (value=1)
escape escape escape utilities variables AlignSemiStructuredNodes 1
As I said we are releasing a new 8.1.3 beta version in few days, with quadrilateral mesher fixed bugs.

appear (you can see this effect at first sight on the left at the
bottom
with only the "layer capa1_a" on and putting the "layer capa2_a"

off, with the view of XY plane).
Do you mean that these irregularities in the mesh is due to my

Again, thank-you very much in advance.

Hi,
If you mean that the elements are quite distorted, i think it's
because you
have assigned element size of '2' for some volumes (layers
'capa1_a' and
'capa1_b' with a height of 0.002) and '4' for others (layers
'capa2_a' and
'capa2_b' with a height of 0.002). Some details of the surfaces
conforming
the volumes is just 0.001. You can see it at
'ig_volume_size_1.png'.
And, for instance, at the layer 'capa1_b', there are surfaces with
element
size assigned of 0.0059 (and the width of the surface is just
0.002) and
just beside them surfaces with element size of 0.000325, 15 times
less, as
you can see in the image 'ig_surface_size_1.png', resulting in the

Asunto: [GiDlist] Semistructured volume
Hello GiD'users!
I have a little problem when I want to create a mesh.
I am working with GID 8.0.8 in Windows.
I attach my project because I don't get to make a good
semistructured
volume with structured mesh
in z-direction. You can see the irregularities of the mesh if
you use
the XY-plane view and the rotate trackball tool.
I don't know what I am doing wrong. I think I followed
correctly the
advice that previous e-mails
gave me but perhaps I am forgetting something.
I would be really grateful if you could cast a glance at it.
Thanks in advance and best regards
Isa

Dear Isabel,
The name of the variable is TypeOfQuadMesher, not QuadrilateralMesher.

Hi again,
I have tried to put in both, GiD8.1.2 in Windows and in GiD8.1.1b in
Linux escape escape escape utilities variables QuadrilateralMesher 0
but I have obtained the following error message: "Unknown variable name
QuadrilateralMesher".
Perhaps, in these versions, the variable was called in another way¿?
Thanks in advance

As I said we are releasing a new 8.1.3 beta version in few days, with

Hello!
Thank-you. I could finally find it.
However, when I try to "Generate mesh", the program, both GID version
8.1.2b in Windows and GID version 8.1.1b in Linux, breaks down, the
message is, in Linux, "Segmentation fault".
Could it be due to both of them are beta versions?

Enrique Escolano wrote:
I think that we didn't understand your meaning of
"irregularities in

I think that you don't want to say "elements with bad angles or

is that all extruded nodes have exactly the same XY proyection.
Is not?
Yes, you are right. I meant just what you have described.
Structured or semi-structured meshes will not generate aligned-like
nodes in the extrusion direction, the algorithm is not a simple
translation, is more general (lateral surfaces can be curved, and
both tops must have the same number of boundaries, but can have
different shape)
Last 8.1.x beta versions have an "special option" to try to force
this alignement if possible, by setting the GiD variable
AlignSemiStructuredNodes to 1
escape escape escape utilities variables AlignSemiStructuredNodes 1
(but your 8.0.8 official version doesn't has this option)
Then, I have just downloaded Gid8.1.2b-win-x32.exe, which is a beta
version but I am not able to find the GiD variable
AlignSemiStructuredNodes and to put it to 1.
Could you say to me where it is exactly?
Thanks in advance and best regards
Isa
ftp://gid.cimne.upc.es/pub/gid_adds/Windows/GiD8.1.2b-win-x32.exe
Next week we are releasing a new beta version 8.1.3 that also has a
new unstructured quadrilateral meshing algorithm,
Obtained quadrilaterals will have much better shape quality. Can set
this mesher with the variable:
escape escape escape utilities variables QuadrilateralMesher 1

Asunto: Re: [GiDlist] Semistructured volume
Hi again,
I have tried to put in both, GiD8.1.2 in Windows and in GiD8.1.1b in
Linux escape escape escape utilities variables QuadrilateralMesher 0
but I have obtained the following error message: "Unknown variable name
QuadrilateralMesher".
Perhaps, in these versions, the variable was called in another way¿?
Thanks in advance

GiD 8.1.2 is crashing because you are using the new quadrilateral mesher
You must set the old quadrilateral mesher (value=0)
escape escape escape utilities variables QuadrilateralMesher 0
And activate the align nodes option (value=1)
escape escape escape utilities variables AlignSemiStructuredNodes 1
As I said we are releasing a new 8.1.3 beta version in few days, with
quadrilateral mesher fixed bugs.

Hello!
Thank-you. I could finally find it.
However, when I try to "Generate mesh", the program, both GID version
8.1.2b in Windows and GID version 8.1.1b in Linux, breaks down, the
message is, in Linux, "Segmentation fault".
Could it be due to both of them are beta versions?
Thanks again for your time

Thanks for your reply. I answer through your e-mail:
Enrique Escolano wrote:
I think that we didn't understand your meaning of
"irregularities in

I think that you don't want to say "elements with bad angles or

is that all extruded nodes have exactly the same XY proyection.
Is not?
Yes, you are right. I meant just what you have described.
Structured or semi-structured meshes will not generate aligned-like
nodes in the extrusion direction, the algorithm is not a simple
translation, is more general (lateral surfaces can be curved, and
both tops must have the same number of boundaries, but can have
different shape)
Last 8.1.x beta versions have an "special option" to try to force
this alignement if possible, by setting the GiD variable
AlignSemiStructuredNodes to 1
escape escape escape utilities variables AlignSemiStructuredNodes 1
(but your 8.0.8 official version doesn't has this option)
Then, I have just downloaded Gid8.1.2b-win-x32.exe, which is a beta
version but I am not able to find the GiD variable
AlignSemiStructuredNodes and to put it to 1.
Could you say to me where it is exactly?
Thanks in advance and best regards
Isa
ftp://gid.cimne.upc.es/pub/gid_adds/Windows/GiD8.1.2b-win-x32.exe
Next week we are releasing a new beta version 8.1.3 that also has a
new unstructured quadrilateral meshing algorithm,
Obtained quadrilaterals will have much better shape quality. Can set
this mesher with the variable:
escape escape escape utilities variables QuadrilateralMesher 1

Hello!
First of all, thanks for your reply.
Your are right with the so different size of mesh elements I am
using,
but if you, in the previous project I sent you, put
"RENDER-normal"
and
put on and off the "layer capa2_a", you can see that different lines
appear (you can see this effect at first sight on the left at the
bottom
with only the "layer capa1_a" on and putting the "layer capa2_a"
on and
off, with the view of XY plane).
Do you mean that these irregularities in the mesh is due to my
bad size
election?
Again, thank-you very much in advance.
Best regards!

Hello GiD'users!
I have a little problem when I want to create a mesh.
I am working with GID 8.0.8 in Windows.
I attach my project because I don't get to make a good
semistructured
volume with structured mesh
in z-direction. You can see the irregularities of the mesh if
you use
the XY-plane view and the rotate trackball tool.
I don't know what I am doing wrong. I think I followed
correctly the
advice that previous e-mails
gave me but perhaps I am forgetting something.
I would be really grateful if you could cast a glance at it.
Thanks in advance and best regards
Isa

[GiDlist] Semistructured volume & concentrate elements
Dear GiD Team,
Thanks for your help, I mean the use of TypeOfQuadMesher and
AlignSemiStructuredNodes. Now I can create a mesh just I wanted.
However, if I want to concentrate elements in the structured direction
(z-direction), I obtain the same XY projection in all extruded nodes but
if I put plane XZ or plane YZ I don't obtain the same projection over
those planes (if I don't concentrate elements everything is right on
each plane).
Could you give me any ideas?
Thanks in advance
