It's apparently in ExodusII, and not in Abaqus. > I also know about other formats that do have it (Salome MED format). > A supposed lack of popularity is in a way a deal breaker, > and element association of the dof would already be the way to go. > > On the other hand, an additional Tri7 would not hurt at all especially for > the print part. At *some* point, and not with a very high polynomial degree either, we run out of file format support regardless. Nobody supports a Tri10 or a Hex64 IIRC. If I had the time, I'd rather come up with an option that gives us better general viz support via element subdivision, instead of trying to scrape the last few specific-format-supported elements out there. --- Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Transform Data into Opportunity.
