hmm well thanks for the quick reply John. I haven't has enough time to play around too much with the AMR capabilities but I've been playing around with it for an eigenvalue problem. It would be useful for me to reuse the same mesh as the eigenproblem because the mesh resolves the discontinuities in the solution decently and the transient solution does not change much spatially. I currently just wrote the final mesh in eigenvalue simulation to a file and re-read that for my transient and proceeded. Of course, things don't quite look the same because now I've lost all information about the constraints.
Anyway, I have another question based on your answer though. Is there a routine to make a given non-conforming mesh to level-0 conforming mesh so that it can be read correctly ? If this requires a lot of code addition, then maybe I'll just try to run the eigenproblem and transient in one run so that the mesh changes are preserved in memory.
