[GiDlist] Nvidia and Gid8

Hello,
I’m still using GiD8 (because we have not bought a license update, yet)
with Debian 64bit. Is there any work around for this nvidia-problem? I
get the black screen inside the GiD-window. The suggested solution
doesn’t work, because I could not find any gidx.

Best Regards,
Georg Haasemann

When installing GiD in a Linux platform, there are created two start
scripts: gid and gidx
gid try to use the OpenGL hardware acceleration, and gidx use the mesa
software implementation

if you installed GiD 9.0.2 for example at /home/your_user/gid902
then instead to use
/home/your_user/gid902/gid

to avoid graphical problems you can try
/home/your_user/gid902/gidx

Which version of GiD are you using?

Maybe your 8 version doesn’t has this gidx script. Try the last 8.xb beta
available version (8.2.0b)

Which version of GiD are you using?
I’m using 8.0.7 and there is no gidx script.


Maybe your 8 version doesn’t has this gidx script. Try the last 8.xb beta
available version (8.2.0b)
I will do it.

Thanks,
Georg

Enrique,

Is this the only solution? The displays of gidx are worse than gid. Is
there any kind of tunning to be done in linux-64bits to solve that?

Thank you.
Claudio

I am trying to postprocess a mesh compounded by type of elements:
hexaedra e prisms. According to the postprocess format, each group of
elements should be placed in a different “mesh”. In the same way, the
results at Gauss Points (even related to the same field) should be
placed in different sections of the .post.res file. However, when
visualing the results, it would like to view the same field over the
entire mesh but GiD considers the field over different elements to the
different fields. How can I visualize a field defined at GPs of a
non-homogeneus mesh at once?

Thanks in advance,
Cláudio

Hi,
You can use ‘Windows–Several results…’ and activate ‘One over another’.
Now you can view both c.fill’s: one for the GP on hexas and the second for
the GP on prisms.

I am dealing with high-order discontinuous results and I am exporting
them to Gauss points. However, GiD is only able to plot ‘contour fill’
of results if I used a limited number of Gauss points. In the case of
hexaedra the maximum is 27 GPs. When I exceed this number, GiD plots
small spheres at the Gauss points locations. Is it the expected behavior?

Ni,

Yes, when GiD does not know how to extrapolate the results from the N GP to
the nodes of the hexaedra, then it draws spheres on the GP with the coloured
result.
If you know how to do this, we can try to implement it.

Thanks,

Miguel,

As I do not know how this feature is implemented and the constraints or
trade-offs you have to comply, please forgive me if I say something
wrong (as we say in my country: if advices had any value, they would be
sold, not given for free): a least squares method could be used? This
way, the number of GPs would not be an issue (except for performance;
remember the joke about advices above…).

But what is really important for me, right know is knowing the GiD
limitations in terms of number of GPs for extrapolating GP data to nodes
for each element.

Thanks,
Cláudio

Hi Claudio,

don’t hesitate to ask questions.

As the manual says, GiD tries to interpolate the gp results to the nodes of
the elements, and if it can not do it, the gp-results are shown as spheres
at the gauss points.

By now, Gauss Points results which can be extrapolated to the nodes are:

  • 1 gp for all elements,
  • 8, 20 and 27 for hexaedras,
  • 6 and 15 for prisms,
  • 5 and 13 for pyramids,
  • 4 and 10 for tetrahedral,
  • 4 and 9 for cuadrilaterals, and
  • 3 and 6 for triangles.

Best regards

Miguel Pasenau
