The adaptive methodology in this paper behaves similarly to "remeshing" used commonly in FEM. Some initial (possibly variable) nodal spacing $h^0$ is chosen, as well as its lower and upper bounds $h_L$ and $h_U$, respectively. 3 Domain $\Omega$ is filled with nodes, conforming to $h^0$ and the solution $u^0$ is obtained. An error indicator is employed to determine which nodes should be (de)refined and the nodal density $h^0$ is altered appropriately. This adaptive cycle below is repeated until the convergence criterion is met. The procedure on $j$-th iteration is written in more detail below:
- Fill $\Omega$ with nodes conforming to $h^j$.
- Solve the problem to obtain $u^j$.
- Compute the error indicator values $\varepsilon_i^j$ for each node $p_i$.
- If the mean of $\varepsilon_i^j$ is below some tolerance $\varepsilon$ return $u^j$ as the solution and stop.
- Adapt $h^j$ to obtain $h^{j+1}$.
