How to use contourf to plot a mesh not generated in matlab, i.e. imported mesh coordinates from abaqus. The issue is that coordinates are not sequential.

I'm trying to use contourf with x and y coordinates being random or non sequential. I have z value for each X y coordinate. Normaly we would create a rectangular mesh and then fill up the z values. Here the issue is that the geometry is meshed in abaqus and the mesh nodes and element related information is fed to my code. Now the nodes are not sequential matrix.

It would help tto have your data.
Since there are (x,y,z) coordinates (there can be duplicates), I would use the scatteredInterpolant function to create an interpolant, and then use either ndgrid or meshgrid tto create the relevant argument matrices using the ‘x’and ‘y’.vectors to define them.
There are several examples on MATLAB Answers using that approach, that create column vectors for ‘x’, ‘y’ and ‘z’ to use with scatteredInterpolant,.and then generate the ‘z’ matrix from the argument matrices. Then use surf or surfc to plot them.

This sort of works, however it takes 605.3 seconds to complete and about as much time to render the surface plots. It fails, because it fills (interpolates) the voids areas. I do not see any way to correct for that.
imshow(imread('boundary conditions.jpg'))
LD = load('plotdata.mat');
plot = LD.plot;
x = plot(:,1);
y = plot(:,2);
z = plot(:,3);
figure
scatter3(x, y, z, 5, z, 'filled')
colormap(turbo)
% return
tic
xv = linspace(min(x), max(x), size(plot,1));
yv = linspace(min(y), max(y), size(plot,1));
F = scatteredInterpolant(x, y, z);
[X,Y] = ndgrid(xv, yv);
Z = F(X,Y);
figure
surfc(X, Y, Z, 'EdgeColor','none')
T = delaunay(X, Y);
figure
trisurf(T, X, Y, Z, 'EdgeColor','k', 'LineWidth',0.2)
toc
This also ended up crashing my computer.

Perhaps try
Also, possibly it would help to use https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/27830-mesh2tetra
(List order is numeric)
