I am trying to calculate energy using the folowing code , the matrices elements2s, nodes2s was the results of another script.

can anyone help me please
many thanks in advance

sz = size(k);
if sz(1) < n*d
k(sz(1)+1:n*d, :) = k(sz(1),:) + (1:n*d-sz(1));
end
if sz(2) < n*d
k(:, sz(2)+1:n*d) = (1:n*d-sz(2)).' + k(:, sz(2));
end
You only talked about extending according to the last value on each "line", but your matrices are short on both sides, so this code also extends by adding 1 along columns as needed.
I think you are talking the wrong approach: I think you should be initializing to the maximum size.

Walter Roberson, I can understand you but I have Null matrices as a results of young modulus , and other variables , and this is a wrong results in physics . In fact I dont know what I will do , may be I should start with another code.
I do appreciate your help and thank you very much.

Can you show the values of the nodes and elements data?
