Degree 1 Morley–Wang–Xu on a tetrahedron

In this example:
\(\displaystyle l_{0}:\mathbf{v}\mapsto\displaystyle\int_{f_{0}}(\tfrac{\sqrt{3}}{3})v\)
where \(f_{0}\) is the 0th face.

\(\displaystyle \phi_{0} = 6 x + 6 y + 6 z - 4\)

This DOF is associated with face 0 of the reference element.
\(\displaystyle l_{1}:\mathbf{v}\mapsto\displaystyle\int_{f_{1}}v\)
where \(f_{1}\) is the 1st face.

\(\displaystyle \phi_{1} = 2 - 6 x\)

This DOF is associated with face 1 of the reference element.
\(\displaystyle l_{2}:\mathbf{v}\mapsto\displaystyle\int_{f_{2}}v\)
where \(f_{2}\) is the 2nd face.

\(\displaystyle \phi_{2} = 2 - 6 y\)

This DOF is associated with face 2 of the reference element.
\(\displaystyle l_{3}:\mathbf{v}\mapsto\displaystyle\int_{f_{3}}v\)
where \(f_{3}\) is the 3rd face.

\(\displaystyle \phi_{3} = 2 - 6 z\)

This DOF is associated with face 3 of the reference element.
