Overview

Utility routine GETNODETOELEMCONN can be called from user subroutine UMESHMOTION to retrieve a list of elements connected to a specified node.

Interface

DIMENSION JELEMLIST(*),JELEMTYPE(*),JGVBLOCK(*)
...
CALL GETNODETOELEMCONN(NODE, NELEMS, JELEMLIST, JELEMTYPE,
     JRCD, JGVBLOCK)    

Variables to be provided to the utility routine

NODE

User node number.

NELEMS

Maximum allowable length of JELEMLIST.

JGVBLOCK

Variable that must be passed into the GETNODETOELEMCONN utility routine. This variable is available in user subroutine UMESHMOTION for this purpose.

Variables returned from the utility routine

JELEMLIST

Array of element numbers for elements connected to NODE. The list will contain elements only in adaptive mesh domains active in the step as well as any contact elements associated with the domain.

JELEMTYPE

Array describing the element types for each element entry in JELEMLIST.

JELEMTYPE entries:

1 indicates a solid element.

2 indicates a contact element.

NELEMS

Actual length of JELEMLIST.

JRCD

Return code (0 – no error, 1 – output request error or all components of output request are zero).
