Plotting displacement values over defined region


I have a deformed 2D region of triangular Elements specified by their Nodes in $x$ and $y$ coordinate system. In addition, I have a list of Displacements in $y$ direction for each node. I want to ContourPlot the displacements over my deformed region of elements. So far my reasoning was to make a list Nodes2 where each sublist has in the first two places the node position and the third is displacement. Then I use ListContourPlot.


Nodes = {{0., 0.}, {10., 0.}, {20., 0.}, {30., 0.}, {-0.101573, 9.81671}, {9.92361, 10.0459}, {19.8914, 10.2668}, {29.7869, 10.5013}, {-0.453558, 19.6276}, {9.57795, 20.086}, {19.5471, 20.5443}, {29.4276, 21.0344}, {-1.06222, 29.4477}, {8.97881, 30.1177}, {18.9679, 30.8116}, {28.8439, 31.5901}, {-1.90436,  39.3141}, {8.12513, 40.1282}, {18.1438, 41.0447}, {28.0142, 42.1991}, {-2.88222, 49.2855}, {7.0891, 50.1568}, {16.9537, 51.1588}, {26.904, 52.9408}};

Elements = {{1, 2, 6}, {6, 5, 1}, {2, 3, 7}, {7, 6, 2}, {3, 4, 8}, {8, 7, 3}, {5, 6, 10}, {10, 9, 5}, {6, 7, 11}, {11, 10, 6}, {7, 8, 12}, {12, 11, 7}, {9, 10, 14}, {14, 13, 9}, {10, 11, 15}, {15, 14, 10}, {11, 12, 16}, {16, 15, 11}, {13, 14, 18}, {18, 17, 13}, {14, 15, 19}, {19, 18, 14}, {15, 16, 20}, {20, 19, 15}, {17, 18, 22}, {22, 21, 17}, {18, 19, 23}, {23, 22, 18}, {19, 20, 24}, {24, 23, 19}};

displacements = {0, 0, 0, 0, -0.0091645, 0.00229398, 0.013342, 0.0250656, -0.0186183, 0.0043011, 0.0272138, 0.0517176, -0.0276138, 0.00588411, 0.0405803, 0.0795059, -0.0342935, 0.00641231, 0.0522328, 0.109954, -0.0357271, 0.00784115, 0.0579424, 0.14704};


stn = Nodes//Length;
Nodes2 = Nodes;
For[i = 1, i <= stn, i++,
AppendTo[Nodes2[[i]], displacements[[i]]]
]
ListContourPlot[Nodes2, Contours -> 20, ColorFunction -> "Rainbow",
AspectRatio -> 5/3, PlotRange -> All, PlotRange -> Full]

The result is as shown in the picture. The left one represents the deformed shape made of triangles and the right one my ListContourPlot with highlighted spots where there shouldn't be any color as the region does not exist (refer to the left picture). I have found a similar problem here, but I don't see how it can be generalized for non DelaunayMesh problems (at least with my knowledge). My question is: How to plot DISCRETE values (in this case displacements) over ONLY a SPECIFIED DISCRETE region?

plotting - How to draw lines between specified dots on ListPlot?

I would like to create a plot where I have unconnected dots and some connected. So far, I have figured out how to draw the dots. My code is the following: ListPlot[{{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4,13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full] I have thought using ListLinePlot command, but I don't know how to specify to the command to draw only selected lines between the dots. Do have any suggestions/hints on how to do that? Thank you. Answer One possibility would be to use Epilog with Line : ListPlot[ {{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4, 13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full, Epilog -> { Line[ ...

calculus and analysis - Integral of the Sinc product

Let us consider the following integral $$ B_n = \int_0^\infty \prod_{k=1,3,5,\dots}^n\frac{\sin (x/k)}{x/k}dx $$ By definition, Sinc[x] == Sin[x]/x , therefore B[n_?OddQ] := Integrate[Product[Sinc[x/k], {k, 1, n, 2}], {x, 0, Infinity}] B /@ Range[1, 13, 2] {Pi/2, Pi/2, Pi/2, Pi/2, Pi/2, Pi/2, Pi/2} OK, everything is fine. But... B[15] 467807924713440738696537864469 Pi/935615849440640907310521750000 What's going on? Answer As Eckhard wrote in comments B[n] is the n-th Borwein integral . (The letter B was not accidental :) ) This funny properties of Borwein integrals is related to the Fourier transform of Sinc function FourierTransform[Sinc[x], x, k] 1/2 Sqrt[Pi/2] (Sign[1 - k] + Sign[1 + k]) Plot[%, {k, -2, 2}, Filling -> 0] which is the box function. The result is $\pi/2$ while the sum $$ 1/3+1/5+\dots+1/n $$ B_n = \frac{\pi}{2} - \pi \bigg(\sum_{k=3,5,\ldots}^n\frac{1}{k} -1\biggr)^\frac{n-1}{2}\prod_{k=3,5,\dots}^n\frac{k}{k-1}. $$ For $n=15$ it is equal to $$ \frac{46780...

list manipulation - Selecting multiple columns from a matrix?

Sample data: data = { {{2013, 1, 1}, 24.13, 167.67, 231.82}, {{2013, 1, 2}, 32.15, 170.92, 225.99}, {{2013, 1, 3}, 35.43, 172.68, 221.67}, {{2013, 1, 4}, 36.73, 173.05, 218.32}, {{2013, 1, 5}, 58.19, 165.96, 197.05}, {{2013, 1, 6}, 69.99, 163.50, 187.52}, {{2013, 1, 7}, 71.37, 154.21, 175.58}, {{2013, 1, 8}, 72.51, 149.66, 163.25}}; I want a DateListPlot with three graphs, so for a matrix formed by columns 1 and 2, one for columns 1 and 3, and 1 for columns 1 and 4. At the moment I'm using this code: data2 = Transpose[{data[[All, 1]], data[[All, 2]]}]; data3 = Transpose[{data[[All, 1]], data[[All, 3]]}]; data4 = Transpose[{data[[All, 1]], data[[All, 4]]}]; DateListPlot[{data2, data3, data4}, Joined -> True, Filling -> {3 -> {1}}] but I have a hunch that this can be done more efficiently. I don't like the Transpose s in particular. Any ideas? edit (for extra credit) What if I need to multiply the second column by 2, which in my solution is simp...
