PHD thesis
Desarrollo de un sistema integrado para tratamiento de geometría, generación
de malla y datos para el análisis por el método de los elementos
finitos
This PHD thesis was presented the 20th of march 2000 by Ramon Ribó.
Ramon Ribó (RAMSAN
web page) is one of the GiD developers. A PDF copy of the PHD thesis in
Spanish can be obtained from that web page.
GiD+ collection
is available for download . . .
GiD+ is a collection of computer simulation codes attached to GiD in the form
of modules. It also includes interfaces for existing simulation programs. The
user can use these modules and create new ones that can be included inside the
GiD+ collection.

The GiD
mailing list has been created
The 'gidlist' mailing list is a forum about any subject related to GiD. It
is a place where everybody can send its questions or suggestions and also answer
other people questions. It can also be used as a place for the people to contact
each others in order to share common interests like same field of study or interchange
of 'problem types'.
