ANURA3D: Numerical modelling and simulation of large deformations and soil & water structure interaction using the material point method (MPM). The Anura3D software uses a dynamic explicit MPM formulation based on a multiple set of material points. Anura3D is capable of simulating multi-phase materials (dry, saturated, unsaturated soil) and free surface water. A fully coupled hydro-mechanical approach is implemented …
PLCd (PLastic Crack dynamic) is an implicit finite element code for the numerical simulation of nonlinear dynamic behavior of structures of complex constitution. PLCd code is developed at International Center for Numerical Method in Engineering (CIMNE) and at the Department of Structures and Strength of Materials of the Technic University of Catalonia (UPC). To get more information …
Zmesher is able to generate 3D cartesian meshes of volumes, surfaces, lines, and/or points. It is especially suitable for electromagnetic simulations of Finite Differences. The tutorial can be found at: User Manual->METHODS FOR MESH GENERATION->Cartesian mesh. Zmesher has been implemented by a third-party partner (University of Granada), and the first time that is used it …
DaGGer (Dam Geometric GenERator) is a GiD-based interactive tool for automatic predimensioning and numerical modeling of double-curvature arch dams. The software was developed to achieve a complete definition of the dam and the supporting ground, even considering elements such as outlets, abutment walls, spillways, excavation shape and rock strata. This tool allows comparing several solutions …
SpreadDEM is the first industrial numerical tool to perform virtual experiments of centrifugal fertilizer spreaders oriented to designers and producers of agricultural machinery. Based on DEMPack technology, a Discrete Element Method (DEM) software for bulk material simulation, the trajectory of every single fertilizer particle is evaluated from the hopper to their contact with the ground. SpreadDEM provides a complete and practical solution to optimize the design of the spreading …
The GiDML_Image2Mesh module generates a volume mesh directly from 3D images. The unstructured tetrahedral mesh is generated from a 3D grid of voxels, in which the material is coded as a color. The mesh is automatically refined in the regions where there are different materials, in order to capture the interface between them. [one-half-first][/one-half-first] [one-half][/one-half] …
The GiDML_OctreeTetrahedraMesher module is an unstructured volume mesh generator. This octree-based mesher ensures both geometrical and model topology preservation. The module’s input is a triangle mesh defining the contours of the model. The tetrahedra output mesh represents the topology of the model, but it may not be constrained to the input triangles. This characteristic permits …
In order to exchange the data between any software and the corresponding modules is mandatory to use the input/output module (GiDML_IO), which provides the API functions to get and set the data from and to the corresponding GiDML modules. Any software willing to use some GiDML module must and include the corresponding header file (gidml_modulename.h) …
SAFIR is a computer program that models the behavior of building and civil engineering structures subjected to fire. SAFIR runs thermal and mechanical analyses based on nonlinear finite element method. The structure can be made of a 3D skeleton of linear elements such as beams and columns, in conjunction with planar elements such as slabs …
I2M is an acronym to name the plug-in “Image to Mesh”. With this plug-in we can import into GiD data in digital image format and generate the mesh directly from the image data. This plug-in is available from internet retrieve option since release GiD 13.1.4d. The current version is able to import one 2D image …
The GiD+OpenSees Interface introduces a long-awaited graphical interface for the popular open source finite element software OpenSees by seamlessly connecting its text-only solver to the user-friendly general graphical pre/post processor GiD. It is available as an add-on (problemtype) for GiD and delivered as open source, under the GNU General Public License. The interface currently provides …
iGP is the interface between GiD and PFLOTRAN and is developed by Amphos 21. GiD is a powerful universal, adaptive and user-friendly pre and postprocessor for numerical simulations in science and engineering and is developed by the International Center for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE), a research and development organization based in Barcelona (Spain). PFLOTRAN …
