mymesh.quality.InverseOrthogonality

mymesh.quality.InverseOrthogonality(NodeCoords, NodeConn, verbose=False)

Calculates element inverse orthogonality for each element in the mesh. For all element types, inverse orthogonality is calculated as 1-orthogonality.

Inverse orthogonality ranges from 0 to 1, with 0 being the best element quality and 1 being the worst.

This definition of Inverse Orthogonality comes from Ansys.

Parameters:

• NodeCoords (list) – List of nodal coordinates.

• NodeConn (list) – List of nodal connectivities.

• verbose (bool, optional) – If true, will print min, max, and mean element quality, by default False.

Returns:

iortho – Array of inverse orthogonalities for each element.

Return type:

np.ndarray
