The data structures associated with an ICE grid file MIGHT include:

Counting:

1) NODE_NUM, the number of nodes;
2) EDGE_NUM, the number of edges, formed from pairs of nodes.
3) FACE_NUM, the number of faces, formed from triples of edges.
4) VOLUME_NUM, the number of volumes, formed from quads of faces.

Location:

1) XYZ(3,NODE_NUM), the coordinates of each node

Connectivity:

1) EDGE_NODE(2,EDGE_NUM), the pair of nodes forming each edge;
2) FACE_EDGE(3,FACE_NUM), the triple of edges forming each face;
3) VOLUME_FACE(4,VOLUME_NUM), the quad of faces forming each volume.
