Dynamic local remeshing for elastoplastic simulation

TL;DR: A dynamic meshing algorithm is used that attempts to replace as few tetrahedra as possible, and thereby limits the visual artifacts and artificial diffusion that would otherwise be introduced by repeatedly remeshing the domain from scratch.
