https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous%20spatial%20automaton | In automata theory (a subfield of computer science), continuous spatial automata, unlike cellular automata, have a continuum of locations, while the state of a location still is any of a finite number of real numbers. Time can also be continuous, and in this case the state evolves according to differential equations. ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green%27s%20function%20for%20the%20three-variable%20Laplace%20equation | In physics, the Green's function (or fundamental solution) for Laplace's equation in three variables is used to describe the response of a particular type of physical system to a point source. In particular, this Green's function arises in systems that can be described by Poisson's equation, a partial differential equa... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant%20morphology | Phytomorphology is the study of the physical form and external structure of plants. This is usually considered distinct from plant anatomy, which is the study of the internal structure of plants, especially at the microscopic level. Plant morphology is useful in the visual identification of plants. Recent studies in... |
