TRIANGULATION_BOUNDARY_EDGES
Boundary Edges of a Triangulation


TRIANGULATION_BOUNDARY_EDGES is a MATLAB program which analyzes the triangulation of a region, identifies the edges that form the boundaries, organizes the boundary edges into one or more connected components, and writes a file describing the components and the sequence of boundary edges.

Either a 3-node or 6-node triangulation may be used.

Usage:

triangulation_boundary_edges ( 'prefix' )
where prefix is the common filename prefix:
