Default Fluid-Structure Interaction (fsiFOAM) - different meshing

Verse is on a distinguished road
Hello,

I was wondering if there was an option to allow for different mesh sizes in the fluid and structure regions? The structure is deformable, and I wanted to make my structure coarser while making my fluid mesh finer.

We're importing the structural mesh data from Nastran into OpenFOAM, and making use of OpenFOAM's superior solving capabilities over Nastran's - hence we were hoping to be able to define the meshes separately.

Thank you!
