The inverse_map functions computes the coordinates in the reference element
for the given coordinates in the physical element. The warning you got was
telling you that the Newton iteration converged to coordinates that don't
lie within the reference element (within the tolerance). What precision did
you compile with? Can you double check that the points it printed out lie
within the element it printed out?.

Live Security Virtual Conference
Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and 
threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond. Discussions 
will include endpoint security, mobile security and the latest in malware
