NAME

       hexahedron - Hexaedron reference element

DESCRIPTION

       The hexahedron reference element is [-1,1]^3.

       Curved  high  order  Pk  hexaedra (k >= 1) in 3d geometries are supported.  These hexaedra
       have additional edge-nodes, face-nodes and internal volume-nodes.

THESE NODES ARE NUMBERED AS

        first vertex, then edge-node, following the edge numbering order  and  orientation,  then
       face-nodes  following  the  face  numbering  order  and  orientation, and finally the face
       internal nodes, following the hexaedron lattice.  See below for edges and faces  numbering
       and orioentation.

NUMBERING

       The  orientation  is  such  that  triedra  (01,  03, 04) is direct and all faces, see from
       exterior, are in the direct sens.  References: P. L. Georges, "Generation  automatique  de
       maillages",  page  24-,  coll RMA, 16, Masson, 1994.  Notice that the edge-nodes and face-
       nodes numbering slighly differ from those used in the gmsh mesh generator when using high-
       order  elements.   This  difference  is  handled  by  the msh2geo mesh file converter (see
       msh2geo(1)).

IMPLEMENTATION

       const size_t dimension = 3;
       const Float  measure = 8;
       const size_t n_vertex = 8;
       const point vertex [n_vertex] = {
               point(-1,-1,-1 ),
               point( 1,-1,-1 ),
               point( 1, 1,-1 ),
               point(-1, 1,-1 ),
               point(-1,-1, 1 ),
               point( 1,-1, 1 ),
               point( 1, 1, 1 ),
               point(-1, 1, 1 ) };
       const size_t  n_face = 6;
       const size_t face [n_face][4] = {
               {0, 3, 2, 1 },
               {0, 4, 7, 3 },
               {0, 1, 5, 4 },
               {4, 5, 6, 7 },
               {1, 2, 6, 5 },
               {2, 3, 7, 6 } };
       const size_t  n_edge = 12;
       const size_t edge [n_edge][2] = {
               {0, 1 },
               {1, 2 },
               {2, 3 },
               {3, 0 },
               {0, 4 },
               {1, 5 },
               {2, 6 },
               {3, 7 },
               {4, 5 },
               {5, 6 },
               {6, 7 },
