Sanity checking jacobians for Finite Element code
Well, the first obvious test is to check if the determinant of the Jacobian matrix is positive. If it not, it means that your element has inverted and your answer is going to be invalid. … For a unit test you could rotate a triangle 360 degrees by increment of 1 degree and measure that the jacobian is always of determinant 1... …
