Ghost nodes
From Medusa: Coordinate Free Mehless Method implementation
See the Ghost nodes (theory) page for what ghost nodes and how they are used. We will use them in this example to reliably solver a 3D mixed Dirichlet and Neumann problem on an irregular domain.
We will solve the problem
$$\nabla^2 u = 1 \text{ in } \Omega, \quad \frac{\partial u}{\partial n} = 0 \text{ on \partial \Omega_{+} }, \quad u = 0 \text{ on \partial \Omega_{-}}$$
