% input:
%    node:  node coordinates of a surface mesh
%    face:  face element list of the surface mesh
%    iter:  smoothing iteration number
%    alpha: scaler, smoothing parameter, v(k+1)=alpha*v(k)+(1-alpha)*mean(neighbors)
%    method: same as in smoothsurf, default is 'laplacianhc'
%
% output:
%    newnode: output, the smoothed node coordinates

% -- this function is part of iso2mesh toolbox (http://iso2mesh.sf.net)
