I was wondering if it was possible to select a different element type in a certain domain.

The element in my geometry are quadratic, but I would like to set to cubic elements to a certain domain.
How can I do that ?

Thanks,

Alain

Hi

you speak of the space function I presume, then try to add a new main physics node where you can redefine the discretisation for only apart of the full model

If its the mesh, you can mesh manually, but linking Quads to tet's require a "converted" surface

Good luck
