Detailed Description

Class for indexing elements Elements denote the highest topology in the mesh. For example for TriSurfMeshes it denotes the faces of the surface, however for the HexVolMesh it denotes the volumetric elements Elem has become a replacement for most Edge, Face, and Cell index types and can be used in more functions. The reason this one is preferred is that it allows the user to write code that works on any type of mesh without having to think about the dimensionality of the elements. Only when dimensionality is important the Edge, Face, and Cell indices should be used.
