GiD forum

Does the middle node lie exactly at the mid-point of the edge, say in case of quadratic tetrahedral meshes? The manual says this would be the case for structured meshes but would this hold true for unstructured meshes? I found some elements that had curved edges, that is, the middle node doesn't lie at the mid-point of each edge.
Is it possible to know when GID would create such elements and locate them once they are created in my domain?

Thanks

The middle node could be 'curved' in both cases, structured and unstructured. It is projected to the geometric entities in both cases
