GiD has been designed to cover all the common needs in the numerical simulation field from pre to post processing: geometrical modeling, effective definition of analysis data, meshing, data transfer to analysis software, as well as the analysis and visualization of numerical results.
GiD: the universal, adaptive and user-friendly pre and post processor
- Universal: GiD is ideal for generating all the information required for the analysis of any problem in science and engineering using numerical methods.
- Adaptive: GiD is extremely easy to adapt to any numerical simulation code. GiD’s input and output formats can be customized and made compatible with any existing software.
- User-friendly: A development focused on the user´s needs, provides with simplicity, speed and effectiveness for users.
GiD adaptive features
- Multilingual: GiD GUI is adaptable to any language.
- Multiplatform: GiD has been developed using C++, Tcl/Tk and OpenGL in order to provide the best performance and portability for MS Windows, Linux or macOS.
- Multiple calculation options: Local and remote computing (an application is available to run calculations remotely from GiD).
Why use GiD
- It reduces time and costs associated with numerical analysis.
- High speed, high quality and robust meshing and data input definition reduces the analysis preparation time for complex geometries.
- Direct use of CAD data combined with GiD geometric modeling capabilities reduces redundancy and costs associated to model creation.
- Easy interface and communication with in-house software codes and CAD systems.
- It reduces the learning time and improves efficiency via an intuitive graphical user interface.
Who needs GiD
- Engineering companies eager to unify their data input and results visualization environment through a variety of numerical simulation codes.
- Universities and R+D centers wishing to provide a user-friendly environment for pre and post processing, which would allow them to develop and use a variety of codes in computational science and engineering.
- Engineers and scientists that want to have individual access to a powerful pre and postprocessing system for the research and application of numerical simulation codes.
