 By default, if $n$ is the degree of mechanical interpolation and $d$ the element dimension, the number of integration points in the deviatoric part of the stress field is $(n+1)^{d}$, unless stated otherwise with the definition of ''NIPDKSI'', ''NIPDETA'' or ''NIPDZETA'' (see [[#Parameters ]]). \\ For example, the interpolation of ''Volume2DElement'' is of the first degree ($n=1$), and it is a 2D element ($d=2$), leading to 4 integration points. By default, if $n$ is the degree of mechanical interpolation and $d$ the element dimension, the number of integration points in the deviatoric part of the stress field is $(n+1)^{d}$, unless stated otherwise with the definition of ''NIPDKSI'', ''NIPDETA'' or ''NIPDZETA'' (see [[#Parameters ]]). \\ For example, the interpolation of ''Volume2DElement'' is of the first degree ($n=1$), and it is a 2D element ($d=2$), leading to 4 integration points.
