    As far as I remember adaptative remeshing is only available for shells.

    but depending on what you aim, SOL2SPH might be an interesting approach. (it converts a solid mesh into SPH particles, beyond a certain strain limit)

    Thank you I will be interested SPGH. I hope SPH method used by Radioss solver can simulation friction phenomenon
