geo_domain(7rheolef)						    rheolef-6.1 					      geo_domain(7rheolef)

NAME

       geo_domain - a named part of a finite element mesh that behaves as a mesh

DESCRIPTION

       The  geo_domain	class  defines a container for a part of a finite element mesh.  This class re-describes the vertices, edges or faces in a
       compact way, i.e. by skipping unused elements from the surrounding mesh.

IMPLEMENTATION NOTE

       The geo_domain class conserves the link to the original mesh such that fields defined on a geo_domain can inter-operate with fields defined
       on the surrounding mesh.

NAME

       hexahedron - Hexaedron reference element

DESCRIPTION

       The hexahedron reference element is [-1,1]^3.

       Curved  high order Pk hexaedra (k >= 1) in 3d geometries are supported.	These hexaedra have additional edge-nodes, face-nodes and internal
       volume-nodes.

THESE NODES ARE NUMBERED AS

	first vertex, then edge-node, following the edge numbering order and orientation, then face-nodes following the face numbering	order  and
       orientation,  and  finally the face internal nodes, following the hexaedron lattice.  See below for edges and faces numbering and orioenta-
       tion.

NUMBERING

       The orientation is such that triedra (01, 03, 04) is direct and all faces, see from exterior, are in the direct sens.   References:  P.	L.
       Georges,  "Generation automatique de maillages", page 24-, coll RMA, 16, Masson, 1994.  Notice that the edge-nodes and face-nodes numbering
       slighly differ from those used in the gmsh mesh generator when using high-order elements.  This difference is handled by the  msh2geo  mesh
       file converter (see msh2geo(1)).

IMPLEMENTATION

       const size_t dimension = 3;
       const Float  measure = 8;
       const size_t n_vertex = 8;
       const Float vertex [n_vertex][dimension] = {
	       {-1,-1,-1 },
	       { 1,-1,-1 },
	       { 1, 1,-1 },
	       {-1, 1,-1 },
	       {-1,-1, 1 },
	       { 1,-1, 1 },
	       { 1, 1, 1 },
	       {-1, 1, 1 } };
       const size_t  n_face = 6;
       const size_t face [n_face][4] = {
	       {0, 3, 2, 1 },
	       {0, 4, 7, 3 },
	       {0, 1, 5, 4 },
	       {4, 5, 6, 7 },
	       {1, 2, 6, 5 },
	       {2, 3, 7, 6 } };
       const size_t  n_edge = 12;
       const size_t edge [n_edge][2] = {
	       {0, 1 },
	       {1, 2 },
