What is "Maximum Element growth rate" and "curvature factor" in the Mesh section?

Under "Mesh" node and then under "size" , I see a section named "Element size parameters". Inside it there is this "Maximum Element growth rate" and "curvature factor" that Comsol always automotically fill for me. I was wondering what are they and how do they affect my solution. For example if I increase the curvature factor, does that mean the solution will be more accurate but more time consuming in terms of convergence or what? The same question for Maximum Element growth rate. what I do not understand is that I alwasy assume my elements should growth independent of my physics?
