mymesh.utils.CalcFaceNormal(NodeCoords, SurfConn)

Calculates normal vectors on the faces of a triangular surface mesh. Assumes triangles are in counter-clockwise when viewed from the outside

Parameters:

• NodeCoords (list) – List of nodal coordinates.

• SurfConn (list) – Nodal connectivity list of a triangular surface mesh.

Returns:

List of element surface normals .

Return type:

ElemNormals list
