Dynamic Mesh Update in FEniCS for Lagrangian Electrospinning Simulation

[dokken]

Yes, the mesh geometry can evolve throughout the simulation.
See for instance:

Moving submesh diverges from its designated trajectory in a two-phase problem

This is not the right thing to do, as this assumes alot of things about the ordering of degrees of freedom. Here is a minimal example that maps a displacement field from a mesh onto a submesh: """ Map degrees of freedom to the mesh geometry nodes and corresponding submesh. Author: Jørgen S.
