GiD - The personal pre and post processor
Separated volume
Menu: Geometry->Create→Separated volume
One feature of GiD is the option to create 'contact separated volumes' for surfaces that are not physically in contact.
For these separated volumes, GiD internally checks whether a unique solid-rigid movement exists between two surfaces and creates the contact. There is the possibility that multiple solid-rigid movements may exist. In this situation, GiD asks for the point image of a source point to define the movement and, consequently, applies the right contact.
