- Postprocessor functions

Additional help and basic examples:
- How do polarizations work?
- How to use a linear spring element?
- How to use magnetostrictive materials with an inductor?

General remarks

This version of the interface was developed and tested under GiD Version 7.2. This is therefore recommended for use with the ATILA interface.

To convert a model developed with an earlier version of the ATILA-GiD interface, proceed as follows:
- Open the model
- From the Data menu, select Problem Type | Transform
- In the drop-down list, select Atila/1.3.0
GiD will convert the older model into the new ATILA-GiD interface. Note that some boundary conditions and materials are sometimes lost during this operation, and must be re-applied before computation. The results, however, are inchanged and can be viewed without additional work.
