pysdic.Mesh.n_vertices_per_element

property Mesh.n_vertices_per_element: int

[Get] The number of vertices per element \(N_{vpe}\) in the mesh - alias for self.connectivity.n_vertices_per_element property.

Returns:

The number of vertices per element.

Return type:

int

Examples

Create a simple Mesh instance.

import numpy as np
from pysdic import Mesh, PointCloud

points = np.array([[0, 0, 0], [1, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 1]])
connectivity = np.array([[0, 1, 2], [0, 1, 3], [0, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3]])
mesh3d = Mesh(points, connectivity, element_type="triangle_3")

Get the number of vertices per element in the mesh.

print(mesh3d.n_vertices_per_element)
# Output: 3
