User-Functions

The user might define his own functions to manipulate the mesh or the results with the user function stored in file ``userFunction.c''. See the command ``call'' how to call a user function. The user can generate new nodes, elements or datasets or extend or manipulate existing datasets or interfaces to other software. The file ``userFunction.c'' includes an example which calculates the hydrostatic stress and stores the result in a new dataset. There the user can see how to deal with datasets.
