V3C Dartmouth FEM File Standard Filetype (Description).

       Output format for a 3-D, complex-valued vector field.

       This filetype is read by the OPNML MATLAB function 
       READ_V3C.  Type "help read_v3c" for more information.

       The .v3c file contains 4 header lines:
          1) The geometric meshname
          2) User-defined file description line
          3) NNV - number of vertical nodes
          4) Frequency (radians/sec)

       Then, there are NN lines of the form:
             I  Z(I,J) Uamp(I,J) Upha(I,J) Vamp(I,J) Vpha(I,J) Wamp(I,J) Wpha(I,J)

       where:  Z(I,J)    - vertical co-ordinate at node (I,J)
               Uamp(I,J) - amp of x-velocity at node (I,J)
               Upha(I,J) - phase of x-velocity at node (I,J) (degrees)
               Vamp(I,J) - amp of y-velocity at node (I,J)
               Vpha(I,J) - phase of y-velocity at node (I,J) (degrees)
               Wamp(I,J) - amp of z-velocity at node (I,J)
               Wpha(I,J) - phase of z-velocity at node (I,J) (degrees)
               J=1,NNV   - the inner loop over 1-D vertical nodes
               I=1,NN    - the outer loop over 2-D horizontal nodes
               NN        - the number of horizontal nodes in the mesh
 
      See the document "DATA FILE STANDARDS FOR THE GULF OF MAINE PROJECT"
