<div>Dear Dr. Brown, <br>
I was trying to use PETSc to mimic something like Chombo. The
figure in this website represents my thought very well.

My code simulates a flow over a objective, i.e. 2D cylinder. Finer
resolution is needed near the objective. I can manually define
where the finer resolution is needed.<br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>You could just use Chombo... It's a lot of work to write a good implementation of dynamic AMR. We don't have a fully worked example of doing that, but there are plenty of packages that do AMR and use PETSc.</div>

<div>Dear Dr. Brown, <br>
Thanks for your reply and sorry for confusing you. <br>
I was trying to ask if there is an alternative way
that I can replace the DMDACreate3d in
/src/ksp/ksp/example/tutorials/ex45.c with something from
outside of the PETSc (i.e. HYPRE). DMDACreate3d generates
a 3D Cartesian grid with uniform grid size. However, I'm
trying to import a local refined grid from outside of the
PETSc (i.e. HYPRE) to replace this 3D Cartesian grid with
unifrom grid size. Is there any examples for me to refer?<br>

<div>Do we have automatic support for this? No. You could of
course just use the Vec/Mat interface, but</div>
<div>
it sounds like a lot of coding on your part. I plan to do this
eventually by specifying the data layout over</div>
<div>the grid using PetscSection. However, the really important
question here is, what do you need from the</div>
<div>grid? If you don't need topological queries, just make the
Vec/Mat and be done with it. If you do (which</div>
<div>I imagine), then you need to be specific about what you
need.</div>

I hope you're having a nice day.<br>
I'm trying to couple HYPRE with PETSc in order to use
PETSc solvers to<br>
obtain solutions (Poisson Equation) with local refined
grid from HYPRE.<br>
Is there any examples in PETSc that I can refer? or is
there any<br>
examples in PETSc which introduce such a way that the
Matrix is imported<br>
from external software rather than generated by PETSc.<br>
