[petsc-users] Local refinements of tetrahedron elements

[Ce Qin]

I am sorry for the unclear description.

By hierarchical, I mean that each cell in the coarse mesh marked for
refinement is subdivided into several small cells.
For example, the mesh refined by the SBR method is hierarchical.

Best regards,
Ce
