11.3.5 VOLUME_SOURCES

A volume source is a source which is applied over a set of elements. In the .geo file the last entry on each line defining the faces which bound an element is an element patch number. This element patch number is used in the inform to identify to which elements a volume source should be applied. For example, if an element has an element patch number equal to 1 then any volume source applied to PATCH 2 in the inform will be applied to the element.

The following sub sections describe the standard PHYSICA volume sources.
