dist_plot
dist_plot,
a MATLAB code which
creates a color contour plot of the distance function, as used in Strang and
Persson's distmesh() program.
Usage:
dist_plot ( p, t, @fd )
where
-
p, a list of node coordinates;
-
t, a list of node indices forming a triangulation of the nodes;
-
@fd, points to a distance function d = fd ( p )
which computes the distance d from the region to any
point p.
