- Choose in GID data then Project type.
Choose tochnog.
- Generate a mesh in GID.
Use GID generation and generate to get a mesh.
Use GID generation and mesh view to see the mesh.
- Use Save as... in the File menu to save to a problemname.gid
directory (choose problemname something to match your problem, e.g. beam or so).
- Use the GID calculate menu to start the calculation.
The nodes and elements will be written to a
problemname.gid/problemname.dat file.
So please note that only nodes and elements will be written in preparation
for a tochnog input file.
Other data will not be written, and the gid calculate wil not start a real calculation.
You should take the nodes and elements, finish the tochnog input file with an editor
and then run tochnog in the usual way.
