Ricardo,

you can use the find_element(i,j) member function, that returns a pointer to the element when it exists and 0 otherwise.

Also for filling sparse matrices, I would suggest taking a look at Gunter's wiki:

http://ublas.sourceforge.net/refdoc/classboost_1_1numeric_1_1ublas_1_1compressed__matrix.html

and playing a bit with the various sparse matrix types.

I find that for FEA, it is usually more efficient to use a generalized_vector_of_vector to assemble the matrix and then copy that into a compressed_matrix, to send it to a solver. Of course this process heavily depends on problem size.

Best,
Nasos
