GetTotalNodes

Inheritence

This method is inherited from the AbstractMesh class.

GetTotalNodes

The GetTotalNodes method returns the total number of nodes in the mesh, with options to count nodes for specific mesh IDs or element selections.

    INTEGER(I4B), INTENT(IN) :: globalElement(:)

Syntax

! Get total nodes in the mesh
totalNodes = mesh%GetTotalNodes()

! Get total nodes for a specific mesh ID
subdomainNodes = mesh%GetTotalNodes(meshid)

! Get total unique nodes in specified elements
elementNodes = mesh%GetTotalNodes(globalElement, [islocal])

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Intent	Description
obj	CLASS(AbstractMesh_)	IN	The mesh object
meshid	INTEGER(I4B)	IN	Mesh ID to filter nodes by
globalElement	INTEGER(I4B)(:)	IN	Global or local element numbers to count nodes from
islocal	LOGICAL(LGT)	IN (optional)	If true, globalElement contains local element numbers

Return Value

Type	Description
INTEGER(I4B)	Total number of nodes matching the criteria

Description

GetTotalNodes returns the total number of nodes in the mesh, with options to count nodes for specific contexts:

1. Return the total number of all nodes in the mesh
2. Return the total number of nodes in elements with a specific mesh ID
3. Return the total number of unique nodes in a list of specified elements

This information is essential for array sizing, iteration limits, and mesh statistics.

Example Usage

TYPE(Mesh_) :: mesh
INTEGER(I4B) :: totalNodes, subdomain1Nodes, elemNodes
INTEGER(I4B) :: selectedElems(3)

! Initialize mesh...
selectedElems = [10, 15, 20]  ! Example element numbers

! Get total nodes in the mesh
totalNodes = mesh%GetTotalNodes()

! Get total nodes in subdomain 1
subdomain1Nodes = mesh%GetTotalNodes(meshid=1)

! Get total unique nodes in selected elements
elemNodes = mesh%GetTotalNodes(selectedElems)

PRINT*, "Total nodes in mesh:", totalNodes
PRINT*, "Nodes in subdomain 1:", subdomain1Nodes
PRINT*, "Unique nodes in selected elements:", elemNodes
