meshextend
Purpose
meshextend
Extend a mesh to the desired finite element types.
Syntax fem.xmesh = meshextend(fem, ...)
[fem.xmesh, cv] = meshextend(fem, ...)
Description
fem.xmesh = meshextend(fem) extends the (possibly extended) FEM structure
fem with the xmesh field. The xmesh object contains the full finite element mesh for
the model, and also the full description of the model using an internal syntax (the
element syntax).
[fem.xmesh, cv] = meshextend(fem) also outputs a cell array cv containing
names of variables that were multiply defined.
The function meshextend reads the field fem.solform and generates the extended
using this solution form. The default value for fem.solform is weak meaning that
the weak solution form will be used.
The function meshextend accepts the following property/values:.

If the FEM structure has a version field fem.version and the version is older than
COMSOL Multiphysics 3.2, then the default for fem.solform is equal to
fem.form.
