Over-constrained volumes
This mesh quality control highlights volumes sharing only one border with other volumes.
.. note::
The highlighted volumes are actually over-constrained only if, at the computation time, the boundary conditions on the borders where the nodes are located are all Dirichlet boundary conditions.
