Some terrestrial telescopes ( such as the Very Large Telescope ) can reduce atmospheric effects with adaptive optics.

Some are presumably adaptive, for example, because they lead to more effective actions in given contexts or enable faster decisions when faster decisions are of greater value ( heuristics ).

Some scholars have suggested that homosexuality is adaptive in a non-obvious way.

Some scholars go as far as to claim that neither insulin resistance, nor obesity are really metabolic disorders per se, but simply adaptive responses to sustained caloric surplus, intended to protect bodily organs from lipotoxicity ( unsafe levels of lipids in the bloodstream and tissues ): " Obesity should therefore not be regarded as a pathology or disease, but rather as the normal, physiologic response to sustained caloric surplus ... As a consequence of the high level of lipid accumulation in insulin target tissues including skeletal muscle and liver, it has been suggested that exclusion of glucose from lipid-laden cells is a compensatory defense against further accumulation of lipogenic substrate.

Some of the commonly used adaptive devices include bath benches, toilet chairs, and movable shower heads.

Some economists now use the adaptive expectations model, but then complement it with ideas based on the rational expectations theory.

Some of these features include all wheel drive, cross traffic alert, collision warning, blind spot monitoring and adaptive cruise control.

Some used it to distinguish human adaptive strategies from the largely instinctive adaptive strategies of animals, including the adaptive strategies of other primates and non-human hominids, whereas others used it to refer to symbolic representations and expressions of human experience, with no direct adaptive value.

Some modern vehicles have adaptive cruise control ( ACC ) systems, which is a general term meaning improved cruise control.

Some computer analyses require adaptive mesh, which is made finer ( using stronger parameters ) in regions where the analysis needs more detail.

Some advanced observatories have recently started using adaptive optics technology, resulting in greater image resolution for faint targets, but it is still difficult to reach the diffraction limit using adaptive optics.

Some applications, such as computerized adaptive testing, are enabled by IRT and cannot reasonably be performed using only classical test theory.

Some options specific to the CC include hands-free parking, lane-departure prevention, intelligent cruise control, and adaptive suspension.

Some artificial systems can be adaptive as well ; for instance, robots employ control systems that utilize feedback loops to sense new conditions in their environment and adapt accordingly.

Some traits do not appear to be adaptive, that is, they appear to have a neutral or even deleterious effect on fitness in the current environment.

Some of the most popular stochastic gradient descent algorithms are the least mean squares ( LMS ) adaptive filter and the backpropagation algorithm.

Some recent write-ups of adaptive management in conservation include: wildlife protection ( SWAP, 2008 ), forests ecosystem protection ( CMER, 2010 ), coastal protection and restoration ( LACPR, 2009 ), natural resource management ( water, land and soil ), species conservation especially, fish conservation from overfishing ( FOS, 2007 ) and climate change ( DFG, 2010 ).

Some specialty locking clothing and other adaptive clothing purveyors offer blanket sleepers, with or without feet, for adults with dementia or other disabilities, for similar reasons.

Some of Tiberian Suns advertised features, such as intelligent and adaptive skirmish AI, unit veterancy, and real-time lighting were severely scaled back as the result of time constraints.

Some were little more than stopgap solutions, mounting an anti-tank gun on a tracked vehicle to give mobility, while others were more sophisticated designs.

Some exact solutions describe gravitational waves without any approximation, e. g., a wave train traveling through empty space or so-called Gowdy universes, varieties of an expanding cosmos filled with gravitational waves.

Some aqueous solutions can be supercooled into a glassy state, for instance LiCl: RH < sub > 2 </ sub > O in the composition range 4 < R < 8.

Some motherboards contain video outputs on the back panel for integrated graphics solutions ( either embedded in the motherboard, or combined with the microprocessor, such as the Intel HD Graphics ).

Some minerals, such as copper minerals and uranium oxide, require acid or carbonate solutions to dissolve.

Some IBM PC clone vendors offered somewhat customised hardware solutions that were delivered running NeXTSTEP on Intel, such as the Elonex NextStation and the Canon object. station 41.

Some open-source wiki applications, though they do not specifically bill themselves as enterprise solutions, have marketing materials geared for enterprise users, like Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware and MediaWiki.

Some different solutions are discussed below.

Some people need a lot of time to complete, whereas others will reach solutions in a few meetings.

Some, such as John DiIulio and outside Bush adviser Marvin Olasky, favor religious solutions for communities, while others, like Etzioni and Galston, prefer secular approaches.

Some of von Neumann's instant solutions to the problems in calculus posed by Szegő, sketched out with his father's stationery, are now on display at the von Neumann archive at Budapest.

Some general interest continued until the early 1950s but designs did not necessarily offer a great advantage in range and presented a number of technical problems, leading to the adoption of " conventional " solutions like the Convair B-36 and the B-52 Stratofortress.

Some organic preventative solutions are available and sulphur powder is known to stop germination.

Some of the earliest solutions to this problem came in the form of a " safety " pen with a retractable point that allowed the ink reservoir to be corked like a bottle.

Some digital printing solutions are used instead of screen printing.

( Some solutions and mixtures take up slightly less volume than their components.

Some cuvettes, known as tandem cuvettes, have a glass barrier that extends 2 / 3 up inside, so that measurements can be taken with two solutions separated, and again when they are mixed.

Some potential solutions to increase fuel efficiency to meet new mandates include firing after the piston is farthest from the crankshaft, known as top dead centre, and applying the Miller cycle.

Some prominent MMO middleware solutions include:

Some compounds, dissolving in solutions ( chromates, molybdates ) form non-reactive and low solubility films on metal surfaces.

Some polynomial sequences arise in physics and approximation theory as the solutions of certain ordinary differential equations:

* Some solutions allow the user to go offline with a copy of the data.

Some solutions involve " locks " similar to the locks used in databases, but they risk causing problems of their own such as deadlock.

Some 2D / 3D combined solutions at the time offered quite sub-par 2D quality and speed.
