How to plot a mesh with colors like contour?

Hi all,

I have a mesh information including deformation, nodes and connectivity. Now I'd like to visualize it with a coloured plot, if I plot it looks like this:

Is there any way to make it like this, where larger deformed areas are plotted with darker colors (this is a demo I found on the internet)?

Many thanks!
