GetMaxNodeToNodes

Retrieves the maximum number of nodes connected to any node in the mesh.

Interface

MODULE FUNCTION GetMaxNodeToNodes(obj) RESULT(ans)
  CLASS(AbstractMesh_), INTENT(INOUT) :: obj
  INTEGER(I4B) :: ans
END FUNCTION GetMaxNodeToNodes

Arguments

• obj (AbstractMesh_, input/output): The mesh object. May be modified if node-to-nodes mapping needs to be initiated.

Returns

• ans (INTEGER): The maximum number of nodes connected to any node in the mesh.

Description

This function returns the maximum number of nodes connected to any node in the mesh. If the node-to-nodes mapping has not been initiated, it will be initiated first.

This information is useful for pre-allocating arrays when working with node-to-node relationships.

Example

INTEGER(I4B) :: maxConnectedNodes
maxConnectedNodes = mesh%GetMaxNodeToNodes()
! Now maxConnectedNodes contains the maximum number of nodes connected to any node
