Do you have a structured 3D "Cartesian" mesh? What numbering of your mesh would you expect to give you a block tri-diagonal matrix? I am not aware of one that does this, and the algorithm used for renumbering in renumber_nodes_and_elements() certainly doesn't guarantee it. -- John ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Attend Shape: An AT&T Tech Expo July 15-16.
