 The orientation is such that triedra (01, 03, 04) is direct and all faces, see from exterior, are in the direct sens\&. See

 This three-dimensional \fBreference_element(6)\fP is then transformed, after the Piola geometrical application, as a hexahedron in a 3D physical space, as a \fBgeo_element(6)\fP\&.
.PP
Curved high order Pk hexahedra (k >= 1) in 3D geometries are supported\&. These hexahedra have additional edge-nodes, face-nodes and internal volume-nodes\&. These nodes are numbered as: first vertex, then edge-node, following the edge numbering order and orientation, then face-nodes following the face numbering order and orientation, and finally the face internal nodes, following the hexahedron lattice\&.

 Notice that the edge-nodes and face-nodes numbering slightly differ from those used in the \fCgmsh\fP mesh generator when using high-order elements\&. This difference is handled by the \fBmsh2geo_1\fP mesh file converter\&.
