You may want to look into calling MeshTools::build_nodes_to_elem_map() which builds a data structure which associates, to each Node, a vector of connected Elem ids. It's a bit expensive to build this map, so best to do it only once and then use it each time you need to find a point neighbor. -- John _______________________________________________ Libmesh-users mailing list Libmesh-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/libmesh-users
