COMSOL 6.2 - mphmesh

mphmesh(model) plots the mesh in a MATLAB figure.

mphmesh(model,meshtag,…) plots the mesh meshtag in a MATLAB figure. If there is only one mesh in the model the meshtag can be left empty.

The function mphmesh accepts the following property/value pairs:

property	Value	default	description
parent	Double		Parent axis
edgecolor	Char	k	Edge color
edgelabels	on \| off	off	Show edge labels
edgelabelscolor	Char	k	Color for edge labels
edgemode	on \| off	on	Show edges
facealpha	Double	1	Set transparency value
facelabels	on \| off	off	Show face labels
facelabelscolor	Char	k	Color for face labels
facemode	on \| off	on	Show faces
meshcolor	Char \| vector	gray	Color for face element
vertexcolor	Char \| vector	k	Color for vertices
vertexlabels	on \| off	off	Show vertex labels
vertexlabelscolor	Char \| vector	k	Color for vertex labels
vertexmode	on \| off	off	Show vertices
view	String \| auto \| none	auto	View settings

Example

Plot the mesh

model = mphopen('model_tutorial_llmatlab');

mphrun(model, 'mesh')

mphmesh(model)

Create a second mesh with an “extra fine” default mesh settings and plot it:

mesh = model.mesh.create('mesh2','geom1');

mesh.autoMeshSize(2);

mphrun(model, 'mesh2')

mphmesh(model,'mesh2','meshcolor','r');

The mesh is plotted with view settings applied. This results in a mesh with grid, axes labels, lights, hiding, and so on applied to the plot. To switch off the use of view settings set view to 'none':

mphmesh(model, 'mesh1', 'view', 'none')

Plot data can be returned from mphmesh. This can be used to create the plot later or to extract information used to create the plot for further analysis

pd = mphmesh(model, 'mesh1');
