  Computational physics is a branch of physics that utilizes numerical methods and computational techniques to solve complex physical problems. It bridges the gap between theoretical physics, which relies on mathematical models, and experimental physics, which depends on observations and measurements. As physical systems often involve equations that are difficult or impossible to solve analytically, computational methods provide an essential toolset for modern scientific inquiry. 
  One of the primary roles of computational physics is to simulate and model real-world phenomena that would otherwise be too expensive, time-consuming, or impossible to study experimentally. From simulating planetary motion to modeling quantum interactions at the atomic scale, computational methods enable scientists to explore new frontiers in physics. This approach has led to significant advancements in various fields, including condensed matter physics, astrophysics, and plasma physics. 
  A fundamental aspect of computational physics is the reliance on numerical approximations. Many physical equations, such as differential equations governing motion or thermodynamic properties, do not have exact solutions. Instead, numerical techniques like finite difference methods, Monte Carlo simulations, and spectral methods are employed to approximate solutions with high accuracy. While these methods introduce some level of approximation error, advancements in computational power and algorithm efficiency have significantly improved the precision of such calculations.

  Insane Consequences - How the...

  This well-researched and highly critical examination of the state of our mental health system by the industry's most relentless critic presents a new and controversial explanation as to why—in spite of spending $147 billion annually—140,000 seriously mentally ill are homeless, 390,000 are incarcerated, and even educated, tenacious, and caring people can't get treatment for their mentally ill loved ones. DJ Jaffe blames the mental health industry and the government for shunning the 10 million adults who are the most seriously mentally ill—mainly those who suffer from schizophrenia and severe bipolar disorder—and, instead, working to improve "mental wellness" in 43 million others, many of whom are barely symptomatic. Using industry and government documents, scientific journals, and anecdotes from his thirty years of advocacy, Jaffe documents the insane consequences of these industry-driven policies: psychiatric hospitals for the seriously ill are still being closed; involuntary commitment criteria are being narrowed to the point where laws now require violence rather than prevent it; the public is endangered; and the mentally ill and their families are forced to suffer.
