Automated Mesh Refinement

Goldenballs · December 9, 2016, 06:05

Hi all.

I have managed to create an XYZ Table, based on a field function, and successfully re-meshed the volume according to the table.

I have asked the table table to update with each time step, so in my mind, it should re-mesh each time step, however it is not.

I have also enabled auto-tabulate for the table.

Is there something that I am missing?

Thanks.

As far as i know - there is no option to remesh at any event.
So i guess - you'll need to make a simple macro.

That's also my experience. Write a macro with an endless loop in which the simulation is remeshed and started and add a stopping criterion to end your simulation after each time step.
