> Hello,

> I have a general question about the PFV model in Yade. According to the
> papers that document the model [1,2], the finite volume mesh is created
> with tetrahedral elements. My question is, is the mesh size is strictly
> controlled by the triangulation which means that the user cannot refine the
> mesh? Is the model sensitive to mesh refinement or it will automatically
> create a mesh that is optimum (i.e. results are independent of mesh size)?
