Each phase requires the use of divergent and convergent tools to facilitate the process. For example, during the define phase, brainstorming, mind mapping, and interviewing can be used to gather ...

Divergent thinking is the process of generating multiple, diverse, and original ideas without judging or filtering them. Convergent thinking is the process of narrowing down, evaluating ...

We posit that the microscopic processes underlying research are not so complex, but instead are iterative and interacting cycles of divergent (generation of ideas) and convergent (testing and ...

These convergent boundaries also occur where a plate of ocean dives, in a process called subduction ... build up into island arcs like Japan. At divergent boundaries in the oceans, magma from ...

Evidence is discussed which suggests that all types of cognitive search—be it in searching for perceptual events, for suitable actions, or through memory—share the characteristic of following a fixed ...

Along convergent boundaries, subduction carries plates into the mantle; the material lost is roughly balanced by the formation of new (oceanic) crust along divergent margins by seafloor spreading.

The answer is subduction. In locations around the world, ocean crust subducts, or slides under, other pieces of Earth's crust. The boundary where the two plates meet is called a convergent boundary.

For more on divergent boundary, go to The Sea Floor Spread. Also known as subduction boundary, a convergent boundary occurs where one plate slides under another as the two are pushed together.
