[aspect-devel] How do you set the finite element type in an ASPECT Parameter file?

[Wolfgang Bangerth]

Harry,
take a look at the parameters in section "Discretization". For example, there 
is a parameter "Temperature polynomial degree" that selects the finite element 
for the temperature. There are others for velocity and pressure.
