Setting order for node-types ( Using SetOrder() )

Main Forum Old-Forum - do not post here

Hello,

I recently started to work with NGSolve.
I am using NGSolve to solve Maxwell’s equations in time-harmonic form. I created a finite element space as: fes = HCurl(mesh, order=1), and I tried setting order for node-types:
fes.SetOrder(TRIG,2)
fes.SetOrder(TET,3)
fes.Update()
, but I noticed that fes.SetOrder(TRIG,2) doesn’t work and 3 face DOFs is what I would expect based on Nedelec’s definition of the second kind elements.

I am grateful for any explanation

Here are my python script and output file.

Hi Elsakori,

in the latest version of NGSolve this feature has been added.
Your code should now work.

Best,
Michael

Hi Michael,

Thank you for your response.
I downloaded the last version of NGSolve (6.2.1902) and tried the code, actually it is still not working.

Is the last version of NGSolve for both Window and Mac?. I am using Mac.

Thanks

Elsakori
