  2. Hypertropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertropia

    Correction of refractive errors by glasses; Prism therapy (if tolerated, to manage diplopia) Vision Therapy; Patching (mainly to manage amblyopia in children and diplopia in adults) Botulinum toxin injection; Surgical correction; Surgical correction of the hypertropia is desired to achieve binocularity, manage diplopia and/or correct the ...

  3. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Prism dioptres. Prism correction is commonly specified in prism dioptres, a unit of angular measurement that is loosely related to the dioptre. Prism dioptres are represented by the Greek symbol delta (Δ) in superscript. A prism of power 1 Δ would produce 1 unit of displacement for an object held 100 units from the prism. [2]

  4. Hirschberg test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hirschberg_test

    For an abnormal result, based on where the light lands on the cornea, the examiner can detect if there is an exotropia (abnormal eye is turned out), esotropia (abnormal eye is turned in), hypertropia (abnormal eye higher than the normal one) or hypotropia (abnormal eye is lower than the normal one).

  5. Prism cover test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_Cover_Test

    The prism cover test ( PCT) is an objective measurement and the gold standard in measuring strabismus, i.e. ocular misalignment, or a deviation of the eye. [1] It is used by ophthalmologists and orthoptists in order to measure the vertical and horizontal deviation and includes both manifest and latent components. [1]

  6. Fluid–structure interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid–structure_interaction

    Fluid–structure interaction (FSI) is the interaction of some movable or deformable structure with an internal or surrounding fluid flow. Fluid–structure interactions can be stable or oscillatory. In oscillatory interactions, the strain induced in the solid structure causes it to move such that the source of strain is reduced, and the ...

  7. Projection method (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection_method_(fluid...

    In fluid dynamics, The projection method is an effective means of numerically solving time-dependent incompressible fluid-flow problems. It was originally introduced by Alexandre Chorin in 1967 [1] [2] as an efficient means of solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The key advantage of the projection method is that the computations ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-dimensionalization_and...

    In fluid mechanics, non-dimensionalization of the Navier–Stokes equations is the conversion of the Navier–Stokes equation to a nondimensional form. This technique can ease the analysis of the problem at hand, and reduce the number of free parameters. Small or large sizes of certain dimensionless parameters indicate the importance of certain ...

  9. Pressure-correction method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-correction_method

    The correction for the velocity that is obtained from the second equation one has with incompressible flow, the non-divergence criterion or continuity equation. is computed by first calculating a residual value , resulting from spurious mass flux, then using this mass imbalance to get a new pressure value. The pressure value that is attempted ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bagolini_Striated_Glasses_Test

    Purpose. extent of binocular functions. Bagolini striated glasses test, or BSGT, is a subjective clinical test to detect the presence or extent of binocular functions and is generally performed by an optometrist or orthoptist or ophthalmologist (medical/surgical eye doctor). It is mainly used in strabismus clinics.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_Methods_in_Fluid...

    Numerical Methods in Fluid Mechanics. Fluid motion is governed by the Navier–Stokes equations, a set of coupled and nonlinear partial differential equations derived from the basic laws of conservation of mass, momentum and energy. The unknowns are usually the flow velocity, the pressure and density and temperature. The analytical solution of ...
