The essays collected in Homing Instincts explore how Morales's conception of home plays out in her daily life, as she navigates the gap between where she is and the stories she tells herself about where she belongs. Although Morales migrated from one North American coast to another, the questions she raises are relevant to migrations of any scale and place, whether across town or around the world. What does it mean to be a newcomer? Who has the right to claim a sense of place? What is gained or lost when we try to fit in? In a world where people are migrating more than ever for social, economic, personal, and political reasons, these questions take on a new urgency. A wife and mother as well as a professional writer and editor, Morales writes with grace and resolve about a broad range of topics, including pregnancy, people watching, rock climbing, and bee colony collapse. She channels a spirit of adventure and adaptability while acknowledging how certain habits and mindsets are indelibly ingrained and are--like it or not--forever part of where, what, and who we call home. As issues of migration and social integration play out in national and international politics, Morales provides a personal lens through which readers can appreciate that at one time or another we have all been in the process of arriving. Homing Instincts is a remarkable debut from a gifted prose stylist. It will be warmly received by lovers of the essay form and anyone who has sought, or still seeks, a place to call home"Women authors, Americanfast(OCoLC)fst01177210Place attachmentfast(OCoLC)fst01743268Migration, Internalfast(OCoLC)fst01020741Identity (Psychology)fast(OCoLC)fst00966892Homesfast(OCoLC)fst01353235Homefast(OCoLC)fst00959074Identity (Psychology)Place attachmentMigration, InternalUnited StatesHomeWomen authors, AmericanBiographyUnited StatesfastBiographies.Electronic books.

The great need for reliable software in the scientific community conveys a continuous stimulus to develop new and better performing numerical methods that are able to grasp the particular features of the problem at hand. This has been the case for many different settings of numerical analysis, and this Special Issue aims at covering some important developments in various areas of application.structured matricesnumerical methodstime fractional differential equationshierarchical splinesfinite difference methodsnull-spacehighly oscillatory problemsstochastic Volterra integral equationsdisplacement rankconstrained Hamiltonian problemshyperbolic partial differential equationshigher-order finite element methodscontinuous geometric averagespectral (eigenvalue) and singular value distributionsgeneralized locally Toeplitz sequencesVolterra integro–differential equationsB-splinediscontinuous Galerkin methodsadaptive methodsCholesky factorizationenergy-conserving methodsordercollocation methodPoisson problemstime harmonic Maxwell’s equations and magnetostatic problemstreemultistep methodsstochastic differential equationsoptimal basisfinite difference methodelementary differentialgradient systemcurl–curl operatorconservative problemsline integral methodsstochastic multistep methodsHamiltonian Boundary Value Methodslimited memoryboundary element methodconvergenceanalytical solutionpreconditionersasymptotic stabilitycollocation methodshistogram specificationlocal refinementRunge–Kuttaedge-preserving smoothingnumerical analysisTHB-splinesBS methodsbarrier optionsstumpshock waves and discontinuitiesmean-square stabilityVolterra integral equationshigh order discontinuous Galerkin finite element schemesB-splinesvectorization and parallelizationinitial value problemsone-step methodsscientific computingfractional derivativelinear systemsHamiltonian problemslow rank completionordinary differential equationsmixed-index problemsedge-histogramHamiltonian PDEsmatrix ODEsHBVMsfloating strike Asian optionsHermite–Obreshkov methodsgeneralized Schur algorithmGalerkin methodsymplecticityhigh performance computingisogeometric analysisdiscretization of systems of differential equationsLavernaro Felice1786237Brugnano LuigiScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910346690203321Advanced Numerical Methods in Applied Sciences4317655UNINA
