If not, this sounds like overset grids or immersed boundary/interface methods. In this case, more than one mesh makes sense to me. If they are intended to match, then I would advocate a single mesh with multiple problems defined on it. I have experimented with this, for example see SNES ex23 where I have a field in only part of the domain. I have a large project to do exactly this in a rocket engine now.</div></div></div></blockquote><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Yes the way I see it is more of a single mesh with two distinct regions to distinguish between the fluid and the solid. I was talking about two meshes to try and explain my vision but it seems like it was unclear. </div><div dir="auto">Imagine if you wish a rectangular box with a sphere inclusion: the sphere would be tagged as a solid and the rest of the domain as fluid. Using Gmsh volumes for instance. </div><div dir="auto">Ill check out the SNES example !
