| - | | Indicates a point (x,y,z) located **inside** the surface. The coordinates of the point are defined by the letters of the corresponding axes followed by the position in the axis. The numbers can be of **any real type** and of **any length**. \\ This point is used to indicate the desired direction of the normal vectors across all SUCHA elements. The direction is later verified while writing the *.lag file, and the order of the nodes is modified if necessary, according to the user input. An example of the verification algorithm is provided in FIGUREXXX below. | | + | | Indicates a point (x,y,z) located **inside** the surface.

| + | In the figure, the point $x_{0},y_{0},z_{0}$ introduced as **SUCHA01X**$x_{0}$**Y**$y_{0}$**Z**$z_{0}$ is used to obtain the user-defined normal unitary vector $\hat{u}$. Then:\\ | ||
| + | - The default normal vector of the surface composed by the nodes **ABCD** is indicated by the normal unitary vector $\hat{n}$. \\ | ||
| + | - The direction of the surface normal vector $(\hat{n})$ is then compared to that of the user-defined normal $(\hat{u})$. This is performed by comparing the norm of the addition $|\hat{n}+\hat{u}|$ and subtraction $|\hat{n}+(-\hat{u})|$ of both normal vectors. In the Figure: | ||
| + | * If **Case 1**: The default normal vector $\hat{n}$ indicates the desired direction. The nodes of SUCHA surfaces belonging to the analyzed group are written following the default ABCD node order. | ||
| + | * If **Case 2**: The default normal vector $\hat{n}$ indicates the wrong direction. This is fixed during the *.lag file writing process by changing the order of the nodes belonging to the analyzed SUCHA group; from ABCD to ADCB. | ||
