triangle - reference element (rheolef-7.2)

The triangle reference_element(6) is K = [0,1].


K = { 0 < x0 < 1 and 0 < x1 < 1-x0 }

This two-dimensional reference_element(6) is then transformed, after the Piola geometrical application, as a triangle in a 2D or 3D physical space, as a geo_element(6).

Curved high order transformed geo_element(6) Pk triangle (k >= 1) are supported for 2D or 3D geometries. In these cases, the nodes of an high-order triangle are numbered as:

Note that high-order triangles have additional edge-nodes and face-nodes. These nodes are numbered as: first vertices, then edge-nodes, following the edge numbering order and orientation, and finally the face internal nodes, following the triangle lattice.
