Dear Roland,
I see.
Thanks for your information.

Hello Chia-Hui,
I have a question about whether it is possible to separate the domain of the simulation. I want to simulate with a larger scale such as (1 million km )^3 , however it is too computation-consuming to simulate the whole domain with GR and it is not necessary to consider GR because GR could be ignored in such large scale. But in the region near center with high density , GR is important .
Right now there is no way in Cactus to only allocate memory for some variables in one region of the grid but allocate memory for all of them in other regions.
Therefore I am wondering if it is possible that GR is included in the center region ,say (1000 km)^3, but not included in the other region. However another problem is that timescale is also very different. ET's time scale is about ~ ms but what I need is around hours to days. Is there some suggestion for me to deal with it ?
That will always be difficult. With mesh refinement you can add resolution in only the regions where high spatial and temporal resolution is required and because Carpet implements sub-cycling in time, in regions where only the coarse levels exist time steps forward with the coarse timesteps and not with the fine one.
You could also consider using Llama to have central region with high (Cartesian) resolution and an other spherical region with lower resolution.
Yours, Roland
