I'm trying to model this situation -

There is a defect on my master surface defined by a node. I want to increase the factor by which my mesh is adjusted at the location of this node on the adaptive mesh domain. Is there a way I can adjust all the nodes of the element that it is in contact with instead of just individual nodes?
