The phrase "ad hoc example" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to a specific instance or case that is created for a particular purpose or situation, often in a temporary or improvised manner.
Example: "To illustrate the concept, I will provide an ad hoc example that highlights the key points we discussed."
Alternatives: "specific instance" or "case in point".
Only two studies used systematic approaches to identify and assess specific knowledge resources, as opposed to referring to generic categories of IC or supplying ad hoc examples [ 4, 6].
Overall, while most participants claimed they felt unaffected by current warnings, they diminished the threats presented either by interpreting the messages as too distal to be relevant or by using ad hoc, time-resistant, examples to challenge their validity.
Finally, Figure 3 shows a case of a distributed network, ad hoc, or WSN, for example.
For example, ad hoc networks can drop a packet due to network events other than buffer overflow.
And also ad hoc assumptions, as for example, bounds on shares of technologies and the like.
In a typical ad hoc routing algorithm, for example, DSR, intermediate nodes do not forward duplicate RREQs, and hence a node can be a part of single route only.
In the extreme cases, where ad hominem attacks tend to be ad hoc insults (as in EXAMPLE 10 above), the intemperate and arbitrary nature of such attacks is likely to undermine, not the ethos of the person attacked, but the ethos of the arguer who launches the attack.
Regularisation programmes in Europe and North America have varied in size from a few hundred cases (for example, ad hoc programmes in the UK or the Netherlands for rejected asylum seekers) to hundreds of thousands (in the US in the 1980s and in southern Europe through the 1990s and early 2000s).
These ad hoc decisions dealt, for example, with issues related to the mode of isolation, patient care intensity, critical problems regarding vital functions or changes required immediately for the intensive care plan.
For example, ad hoc analyses indicated that several AEs occurred significantly more often in Asian patients, relative to white patients, such as hand-foot syndrome that occurred in 70% of Asian patients compared with 28% of white patients (P<0.001).
