Convert GIF to INP

What is GIF file?

The Graphics Interchange Format File (.GIF) is a raster image type used for storing bitmap images. It was first developed by CompuServe in 1987 and has been widely adopted since then, being particularly popular on the World Wide Web. A .GIF file contains up to 256 distinct colors chosen from the 24-bit RGB color space. It is limited to a maximum dimension of W pixels by H pixels and a maximum file size of 250 kB, making it well-suited for small graphics like icons and website images. The . [ ⏩ ] GIF file extension

What is INP file?

The INP file is the .INP extension format used by the Abaqus suite of engineering simulation tools. It is used to store the input parameters for analyses performed within the Abaqus suite, and also to store the resulting output. Features stored within an INP file can include commands and data related to geometry, objects, boundary conditions, disciplines such as structural analysis or fluid dynamics.

How to convert the file from GIF to INP?

To successfully convert the GIF file to INP, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.GIF). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case INP (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than INP).

What is a file conversion?

A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. GIF to INP. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting GIF files to INP files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension INP, while before this step we had the GIF file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new INP file, or not.
