[FLASH-USERS] force refinement at given time

[Slavin, Jonathan]

Hi all,

I'm wondering about the best approach to forcing grid refinement in a given
location, but only for a particular time.  My purpose in doing this is so
that when I set off a supernova explosion the grid will be well refined at
the explosion site.  Once the explosion has been initiated and before the
explosion time, the default refinement criteria should, and do, work fine,
so I'm concerned that if I do something like use Grid_markRefineSpecialized
that it will always be called. As I understand it,
Grid_markRefinedSpecialized is supposed to be called from
Grid_markRefineDerefine.

I'm wondering if I could use Simulation_adjustEvolution for this purpose.
So, if the time is right (explosion about to occur), force refinement in
the appropriate region - though I'm not clear how to do that forcing.  I
noticed that Simulation_adjustEvolution is called before source terms are
applied in Driver_evolveFlash.

Any suggestions?

Regards,
Jon
