Tips
• Alternative method
• Partition the Eulerian domain so that each partitioned region includes just
one of the intended material locations
• Use the volume fraction tool to create individual discrete fields for each
partitioned region using the appropriate reference part
• When assigning materials, use appropriate region and discrete field pairs.
