Frequent variables

• eleTypes: type of an element, e.g. for a T3 eleTypes equals 2
• name: name of an element, e.g. for a T3 name equals Triangle 3
• dim: dimension of an element, e.g. for a T3 dim equals 2
• order: order of an element, e.g. for a T3 order equals 1
• tag: tag of an element; tags are used to distinguish elements that have the same dimension dim. tag goes from 0, 1, ...
• numNodes: numbers of nodes of an element, e.g. for a T3, numNodes equals 3
• paramCoord: vector that contains the concatenation of the coordinates of the elements in the reference space; for a T3, we get {0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1}, that is, (0, 0), (1, 0) and (0, 1), i.e. the three coordinates of the vertices of the triangle
