Hello,

I am using Comsol 5.4. I need to get the connectivity matrix so that I will use the nodal values to calculate the elemental values in Matlab.

Thank you,

One of the reasons for using Comsol Multiphysics is that you don't have to make these matrices yourself.

You can get the information you need from the mphmeshstats function. For more advanced information about the internal storage of data in Comsol you should consult the mphxmeshinfo function.

Hello Lars,

I need to do some calculations by using the Darcy's Velocity (dl.U) in element level and use this information for other calculations. I tried mphmeshstats and mphxmeshinfo functions and the outputs are given as screenshot below. It seems like it doesn't give me what I want. Do you have any other suggestions? Or should I do additional things with those functions?

mphmeshstats has an extra output. See the LiveLink for Matlab User's Guide in the section titled "Extract And Create Mesh Information".

The output of xmeshinfo is a struct with a lot of sublevels which are not for the faint of heart.
