What does the "H" in "h-method" stand for?
(OP)
I am familiar with the term "h-method" in that it means a conventional FE analysis, and that "p-method" utilises much fewer elements but with very high order polynomials (up to degree 15?) for the shape and displacement functions, and I assume rightly or wrongly that the "P" stands for polynomial, but can someone shed any light on what the "H" stands for in "h-method" ?

To add a related question. Does anybody know what the "r" in r-adaptivity stands for?

both of the things have its own advantages and disadvantages. keeping the mesh size smaller , can increase your time for calculation and ultimately cost u money .
so always tries to keep u r mesh size such that u get reliable results .
