…d faces and enable validation in `FemSolver`. - Modified `get_boundary_nodes` in `crates/cfd-3d/src/fem/problem.rs` to strictly use topological boundary faces (count == 1). - Uncommented `problem.validate()` in `crates/cfd-3d/src/fem/solver.rs`. - Updated `TrifurcationSolver3D` in `crates/cfd-3d/src/trifurcation/solver.rs` to iterate over all boundary faces and assign default Wall BCs to unmarked faces. - Added regression test `test_interior_node_ignored`. - Commented out `scheme` dependency in `Cargo.toml` to fix build.

Summary of ChangesHello @ryancinsight, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed! This pull request significantly enhances the robustness and accuracy of the 3D Finite Element Method (FEM) solver by refining how boundary nodes are identified and how boundary conditions are applied. The changes ensure that the solver's validation process correctly distinguishes between internal and external boundaries, preventing false positives and ensuring that all relevant boundary faces receive appropriate conditions. This leads to more reliable simulations and a cleaner dependency tree. Highlights

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe changes disable scheme integration features across Cargo manifests and modify boundary node and face detection logic in the 3D finite element and trifurcation solvers. Validation is re-enabled in the Stokes solver, and boundary condition assignment broadens to include all boundary faces rather than only explicitly marked ones. Changes

Code Review
This pull request successfully addresses the boundary node validation issue in the 3D FEM solver by transitioning to a strictly topological definition of boundary faces (those referenced by exactly one cell). This correctly excludes internal marked faces from requiring boundary conditions, resolving false positives in the validation step. The re-enabling of validation in FemSolver::solve and the updates to TrifurcationSolver3D to ensure all topological boundaries are covered (defaulting to wall conditions) are positive changes for solver robustness. I have provided some feedback regarding efficiency improvements by leveraging existing Mesh APIs and maintainability suggestions for redundant configuration.

The logic for identifying topological boundary faces is already implemented in the Mesh struct. Using the existing external_faces() API is more efficient as it uses a Vec-based counter instead of a HashMap, and it improves maintainability by reducing code duplication. Note that this change will make the face_cell_count calculation (lines 94-100) redundant, so it should be removed as well. Additionally, the docstring for get_boundary_nodes (lines 73-80) should be updated to reflect that marked internal faces are now excluded.

To be consistent with the updated boundary definition in StokesFlowProblem and the goal of excluding internal marked faces from boundary condition requirements, it is recommended to use mesh.external_faces() here. mesh.boundary_faces() includes all marked faces even if they are internal, which could lead to unintended Dirichlet constraints on interior nodes if those faces were marked for non-physical reasons (e.g., interface tracking).

Commenting out features and dependencies in Cargo.toml is generally discouraged as it leaves dead configuration in the codebase. If the scheme-integration feature and the scheme dependency are indeed redundant or no longer supported, they should be removed entirely to maintain a clean workspace configuration.

Similar to the workspace Cargo.toml, redundant features and dependencies should be removed rather than commented out to avoid cluttering the configuration files.

74-110:⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 MinorDocstring is inconsistent with the new implementation.
The doc comment (lines 78–80) still lists two sources of boundary faces: explicitly marked faces and faces belonging to exactly one cell. However, the implementation now only uses the topological criterion (count == 1), deliberately excluding marked faces. Update the doc to match.
Proposed doc fix

122-135:⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 MajorOutlet label parsing can panic on unexpected labels.
Line 124:
label.chars().last().unwrap().to_digit(10).unwrap() as usizewill panic if the label is exactly"outlet"(last char't') or if the digit exceeds theoutlet_pressuresarray bounds (size 3). While this is pre-existing code, the broadened iteration overall_boundary_facesincreases the surface area for encountering unexpected labels.Proposed defensive fix

120-120: Commented-out feature and dependency look fine as a build fix.Note that the
scheme_integration_demoexample (line 172) lacks arequired-features = ["scheme-integration"]gate. If it depends on scheme, it will fail to compile even when this feature is eventually re-enabled. Consider gating it or removing it.Also applies to: 152-152
crates/cfd-3d/src/fem/problem.rs (1)
324-359: Test doesn't fully exercise the "interior node ignored" scenario.The comment acknowledges this limitation (lines 326–331): all 5 nodes in the two-tet mesh sit on external faces regardless of the internal face marker. The test confirms that marking an internal face doesn't break anything, but it doesn't verify that a truly interior node (one only on internal faces) would be excluded. This is fine for a regression test, but consider adding a comment noting what a stronger test would look like (e.g., a 3+ tet mesh with a fully enclosed interior vertex).

This PR addresses the TODO in
crates/cfd-3d/src/fem/solver.rsby fixing thevalidate()logic to correctly identify boundary nodes based on topological connectivity, excluding internal marked faces. This prevents false positives where internal nodes were flagged as missing boundary conditions. The validation step inFemSolver::solvehas been re-enabled. Additionally, theTrifurcationSolver3Dwas updated to ensure all boundary faces (including unmarked ones) are assigned boundary conditions, preventing validation failures.

High-level PR Summary
This PR fixes a boundary node validation issue in the 3D FEM solver by updating the logic to identify boundary nodes strictly based on topological connectivity (faces referenced by exactly one cell), rather than including faces marked internally. This prevents false positives where interior nodes on marked internal faces were incorrectly flagged as missing boundary conditions. The validation step in
FemSolver::solvehas been re-enabled, and theTrifurcationSolver3Dnow assigns boundary conditions to all boundary faces (both marked and unmarked) to prevent validation failures. A regression testtest_interior_node_ignoredwas added to verify the fix. Additionally, the optionalschemedependency has been disabled across multiple crates to resolve build issues.⏱️ Estimated Review Time: 15-30 minutes
