GetGlobalEdgeNumber

Get global Edge number from global element and localEdgenumber.

Interface

MODULE FUNCTION GetGlobalEdgeNumber(obj, globalElement, localEdgeNumber, islocal) RESULT(ans)
  CLASS(AbstractMesh_), INTENT(IN) :: obj
  INTEGER(I4B), INTENT(IN) :: globalElement
  !! local or global element number
  INTEGER(I4B), INTENT(IN) :: localEdgeNumber
  !! local Edge number in global element
  LOGICAL(LGT), OPTIONAL, INTENT(IN) :: islocal
  !! if true then global element is local element
  INTEGER(I4B) :: ans
  !! global Edge number
END FUNCTION GetGlobalEdgeNumber

Description

This function returns the global edge number for a specified local edge within an element. This is useful for identifying unique edges across the entire mesh.

Arguments

• obj: The abstract mesh object.
• globalElement: The global (or local) element number.
• localEdgeNumber: The local edge number within the element.
• islocal: If present and true, globalElement is treated as a local element number.

Returns

• ans: The global edge number.

Example

INTEGER(I4B) :: elemNum = 8, localEdge = 3, globalEdge

globalEdge = mesh%GetGlobalEdgeNumber(elemNum, localEdge)
PRINT*, "Global edge number:", globalEdge
