 ==== Input File Description ====
-Here, general description of OOFEM input files for solving flow problems can be found. Fully general description of OOFEM input file (for all problems) can be found here: [[http://www.oofem.org|www.oofem.org]]
+Here, a description of OOFEM input files related to flow problems, can be found. The complete and general description of OOFEM input format (for all problems) can be found here: [[http://www.oofem.org|www.oofem.org]]
 As a sample input file, input file for V-funnel simulation is choosen:

-In general, OOFEM input file can be (imaginary) divided into three main sections. In the first section specifications about type of problem under consideration, type of solver and exported variables are specified. In the second section there is a mesh descriptions. That means list of nodes with its numbers, coordinates and boundary conditions and list of elements specifying its type, numbers of connecting nodes, it's appropriate material and eventually its load. In the third section description of materials, boundary conditions and related entities is done.
+In general, OOFEM input file can be (imaginary) divided into three main sections. In the first section specifications about type of problem solved, including specification of type of solver and exported variables, are to be provided.
+In the second section, the computational mesh is specified. This includes specification of nodes (with associated coordinates and boundary conditions) and specification of individual elements (with their type, nodal connectivity, materials and eventually applied loadings).
+In the third section, description of material models, initial and boundary conditions is done.
 ===First section===
- In first section (first seven lines), there is description of type of problem under consideration, type of solver and exported variables are specified.
+ In the first section (consisting of the first seven lines), the specifications related to type of problem solved, type of solver and exported variables are provided.
-First line specifies the location of OOFEM output file. Note, that the path must be an absolute path.
+The first line specifies the path to output file containing textual output with simulation results.
+The second line is intended to name the simulation. It can contain any description of solved problem, OOFEM ignores that line.
-Second line is for user comment. There can be any description of solved problem, OOFEM ignores that line.
-Third line describes type of solver and it's parameters. Some of them are genereal and necessary for all solvers, some of them are specific for concrete solver.
-Note, that order of keywords is not determined!!!
+The third line describes type of problem, its parameters, and numerical solver. Note, that the order of keyword-value pairs is optional !!
