Thank you very much. That was actually very helpful. I had to save the mesh as quad4 before importing it to libmesh. One thing that I found though is that libmesh is not reading the number of local nodes "n_local_nodes()=0". there for the number of degrees of freedom is zero. I am printing mesh i

Yes you need to export QUAD4 from cubit instead of SHELL4 which is the default. -- John On Feb 27, 2013, at 11:51 AM, Carlos Acosta wrote: > Hello. > > I am trying to run one of the first examples. The one solving a Poisson > problem. > The example runs great when the mesh is generated from Li
