How to calculate number of penta,hexa and quad grid quickly?

Hi,

Thanks to all of you for your valuable time and efforts putting in helping others.

I have many grid elements.It has many penta,hexa and quad grids.How can i distinguish them and calculate their numbers?

Now i use hm_getmark and hm_nodelist to identify them.However,it costs lots of time.And i don't think it is a good idea.

Could you give me a better idea?

Thank you very much!!!

Use hm_count

foreach {ename econf} {quad 104 penta 206 hexa 208} {

    puts '#$ename = [hm_count elems all $econf 0]'

}

Amazing!Besides,could i use hm_count to calculate the min and max Jacobian for quad or hexa quickly?

No, it cannot.

Try below:

*createmark elems 1 'by config' 104

set Jacobs [lsort [hm_getvalue elems mark=1 dataname=jacobian]]

puts min=[lindex $Jacobs 0]

puts max=[lindex $Jacobs end]
