    Hello
    I am using GID and impact to do some analysis.
    at the moment I would like to use the the tracker for contact force or section force for a bending test. I can't find so match documentation about these solution.
    I have many Mesh points to get the information so I am trying to use the GID interface to generate the .in file.

    Any Help will be usefull.
    Kind regards
    Geert

    Dear Geert,

    In GiD interface, the tracker point at the moment only: force, moment, displacement and acceleration (from Conditions > Tracker point > Type)
    You can change the tracker variable found in *.in file to different variable (please refer: http://www.impact-fem.org/doc_fembic_en#trackers).

    If you would like to add the tracker variable, the file is Impact.bas in GiD installation folder \problemtypes\Impact.gid\

    Regards,
    waluyo
