  2. Hypertropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertropia

    Surgical correction. Surgical correction of the hypertropia is desired to achieve binocularity, manage diplopia and/or correct the cosmetic defect. Steps to achieve the same depend on mechanism of the hypertropia and identification of the offending muscles causing the misalignment.

  3. Contraction alkalosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contraction_alkalosis

    Contraction alkalosis refers to the increase in blood pH that occurs as a result of fluid losses (volume contraction). The change in pH is especially pronounced with acidic fluid losses caused by problems like vomiting.

  4. Borda–Carnot equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borda–Carnot_equation

    In fluid dynamics the Borda–Carnot equation is an empirical description of the mechanical energy losses of the fluid due to a (sudden) flow expansion. It describes how the total head reduces due to the losses.

  5. Volume contraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_contraction

    Volume contraction of intracellular fluid may occur after substantial fluid loss, since it is much larger than ECF volume, or loss of potassium (K +) see section below. ICF volume contraction may cause disturbances in various organs throughout the body.

  6. Strabismus surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strabismus_surgery

    Esotropias measuring more than 15 prism diopters (PD) and exotropias more than 20 PD that have not responded to refractive correction can be considered candidates for surgery. Techniques Disinserting the medial rectus muscle. The goal of strabismus surgery is to correct misalignment of the eyes.

  7. PISO algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PISO_algorithm

    PISO algorithm ( Pressure-Implicit with Splitting of Operators) was proposed by Issa in 1986 without iterations and with large time steps and a lesser computing effort. It is an extension of the SIMPLE algorithm used in computational fluid dynamics to solve the Navier-Stokes equations.

  8. 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 as an efficient means of solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations.

  9. Pressure-correction method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-correction_method

    Pressure-correction method is a class of methods used in computational fluid dynamics for numerically solving the Navier-Stokes equations normally for incompressible flows.

  10. Darcy–Weisbach equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy–Weisbach_equation

    In fluid dynamics, the DarcyWeisbach equation is an empirical equation that relates the head loss, or pressure loss, due to friction along a given length of pipe to the average velocity of the fluid flow for an incompressible fluid.

  11. Partial volume (imaging) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_volume_(imaging)

    The partial volume effect can be defined as the loss of apparent activity in small objects or regions because of the limited resolution of the imaging system.
