[Getdp] ... Level Set & Stefan Problem ...

Hello,

I am embarking on a project where I need to solve the mass, momentum and 
energy conservation equations on a domain with moving boundaries between 
liquid and solid, as well as between liquid and gas. I have read that 
such "free surface solidification" problems are part of the class of 
Stefan Problems, and that one possible approach to solution, that does 
not require re-meshing the moving boundaries, is the Level Set Method. 
Has anyone worked with this in GetDP?

Thanks and Regards,

Matt Koch
