+GiD has been designed as a universal, adaptive and user-friendly graphical 
+user interface for geometrical modelling, data input and visualisation of 
+results for all types of numerical simulation programs. Typical problems 
+that can be successfully tackled with GiD include most situations in solid 
+and structural mechanics, fluid dynamics, electromagnetics, heat transfer, 
+geomechanics, etc. using finite element, finite volume, boundary element, 
+finite difference or point based (meshless) numerical procedures.
+
+GiD is ideal to be used in a multi-user environment in universities, 
+research centers and enterprises for development and applications of 
+different numerical simulation programs
+
+Note: The Academic version is free to download and use and can be upgraded 
+to a professional version by buying a license.
