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)? 

Thanks,
Othman
