  2. Adaptive mesh refinement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_mesh_refinement

    Adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) changes the spacing of grid points, to change how accurately the solution is known in that region. In the shallow water example, the grid might in general be spaced every few feet—but it could be adaptively refined to have grid points every few inches in places where there are large waves.

  3. Mesh generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_generation

    Mesh generation is deceptively difficult: it is easy for humans to see how to create a mesh of a given object, but difficult to program a computer to make good decisions for arbitrary input a priori. There is an infinite variety of geometry found in nature and man-made objects. Many mesh generation researchers were first users of meshes.

  4. Psychological adaptation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_adaptation

    Evolutionary psychology proposes that the human psychology consists primarily of psychological adaptations, [2] which is opposed by the tabula rasa or blank slate model of human psychology. Early behaviourists, like B.F. Skinner , tended to the blank slate model and argued that innate behaviors and instincts were few, some behaviourists ...

  5. Psychology Today - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychology_Today

    Psychology Today is an American media organization with a focus on psychology and human behavior. The publication began as a bimonthly magazine, which first appeared in 1967. The print magazine's reported circulation is 275,000 as of 2023. [ 2 ]

    In 1993, Charles Laurence at the London Daily Telegraph wrote that, in 13th Gen, Strauss and Howe offered this youth generation "a relatively neutral definition as the 13th American generation from the Founding Fathers,". [96] According to Alexander Ferron's review in Eye Magazine, "13th Gen is best read as the work of two top-level historians ...

  7. Adaptive unconscious - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_unconscious

    The adaptive unconscious is affected by things like emotional reaction, estimations, and experience and is thus inclined to stereotyping and schema which can lead to inaccuracy in decision making. The adaptive conscious does however help decision making to eliminate cognitive biases such as prejudice because of its lack of cognitive tools.

  8. Interpersonal adaptation theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Interpersonal_Adaptation_Theory

    The theory states, individuals enter interactions with expectations, requirements, and desires, which combined establish an interaction position. Once the interaction begins, the difference between interaction position and the other party's actual behavior determines whether the individual will adapt and continue the communication positively or ...

  9. hp-FEM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hp-FEM

    hp-FEM is a generalization of the finite element method (FEM) for solving partial differential equations numerically based on piecewise-polynomial approximations. hp-FEM originates from the discovery by Barna A. Szabó and Ivo Babuška that the finite element method converges exponentially fast when the mesh is refined using a suitable combination of h-refinements (dividing elements into ...
