Hi! How can I extract only the coordinates of the nodes forming the outermost circle? The nodes are located on radius R = 4!
nodes = importdata("nodes.txt");
figure
plot3(nodes(:,1),nodes(:,2),nodes(:,3),'b.','Markersize',15);
axis equal
xlabel('x')
ylabel('y')
zlabel('z')

If you need a general answer (considering the cases where the data points are not uniformaly spaced), using convhull would be the most fitting.

% Load the nodes data
nodes = importdata('nodes.mat');
% Define the desired radius
R = 4;
% Calculate the distance of each node from the origin in the x-y plane
distances = sqrt(nodes(:,1).^2 + nodes(:,2).^2);
% Find the indices of nodes that are close to the radius R
% You may need to adjust the tolerance depending on the precision of your data
tolerance = 0.1; % Tolerance for the radius match
outermost_indices = find(abs(distances - R) < tolerance);
% Extract the coordinates of the outermost nodes
outermost_nodes = nodes(outermost_indices, :);
% Plot all nodes
figure;
plot3(nodes(:,1), nodes(:,2), nodes(:,3), 'b.', 'Markersize', 15);
hold on;
% Highlight the outermost nodes in red
plot3(outermost_nodes(:,1), outermost_nodes(:,2), outermost_nodes(:,3), 'r.', 'Markersize', 15);
% Set axis properties
axis equal;
xlabel('x');
ylabel('y');
zlabel('z');
% Print the coordinates of the outermost nodes
disp('Coordinates of the nodes forming the outermost circle:');
disp(outermost_nodes);
% If you want to print coordinates with a label:
for i = 1:size(outermost_nodes, 1)
fprintf('Node %d: (x, y, z) = (%.4f, %.4f, %.4f)\n', i, outermost_nodes(i, 1), outermost_nodes(i, 2), outermost_nodes(i, 3));
end

Can you get the coordinates as a list of (x,y) locations? If so, get the convex hull with convexHull or convhull

Here's an alternative way:
nodes = importdata("nodes.mat");
figure
plot3(nodes(:,1),nodes(:,2),nodes(:,3),'b.','Markersize',15);
axis equal
xlabel('x')
ylabel('y')
zlabel('z')
r = 4;
theta = 0:2*pi/20:2*pi;
for i = 1:numel(theta)
x(i) = r*cos(theta(i));
y(i) = r*sin(theta(i));
z(i) = 3;
end
hold on
plot3(x,y,z,'ro','markersize',15)
