An Exodus II specification for handling gauss points

Pebay, Philippe P.; Jortner, Jeffrey N.

This report specifies the way in which Gauss points shall be named and ordered when storing them in an EXODUS II file so that they may be properly interpreted by visualization tools. This naming convention covers hexahedra and tetrahedra. Future revisions of this document will cover quadrilaterals, triangles, and shell elements.
