Dear everyone,

I need to solve let's say the heat equation over a domain made of two different bodies. The heat flux must be discontinuous at the interface between the two bodies. I guess I have the following options: - Generate a mesh where the interface is explicitly meshed. I am used to GMSH, which does not deal very well with hexas. Is there any good hexa mesher that you would advice? - Generate a regular mesh and then "cut" it along the interface. I have seen such work for tetras, but I am not really sure it is even possible for hexas... Is there any good hexa mesh modification tool that you would advice? - I am used to the extended finite element method where one enriches the approximation space of the elements cut by the interface by introducing additional degrees of freedom in order to capture the discontinuity without any need for remeshing. Is there such or comparable possibility inside deal.II?

Thanks in advance for your help,

I am really looking forward being part of the deal.II community.

Martin.
