Hi, I have three questions:

- I'm interested in changing the constitutive equation for a poroelastic material. Is this possible and how would I go about doing this?
- If I wanted to create an adaptive mesh that changes the material properties of a region at discrete time steps and can also add or delete extra material, can I do this with Abaqus?
- Finally, if I wanted to implement the aforementioned adaptive mesh with solution-dependent processes (i.e. strain or stress) as opposed to temporal parameters, is this possible?
