  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. Pressure prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_prism

    Pressure prism. A pressure prism is a way of visually describing the variation of hydrostatic pressure within a volume of fluid. When variables of fluid density, depth, gravity, and other forces such as atmospheric pressure are charted, the resulting figure somewhat resembles a prism .

  4. Cyclotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclotropia

    Cyclotropia is a form of strabismus in which, compared to the correct positioning of the eyes, there is a torsion of one eye (or both) about the eye's visual axis. Consequently, the visual fields of the two eyes appear tilted relative to each other. The corresponding latent condition – a condition in which torsion occurs only in the absence ...

  5. Volume correction factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_Correction_Factor

    In thermodynamics, the Volume Correction Factor (VCF), also known as Correction for the effect of Temperature on Liquid (CTL), is a standardized computed factor used to correct for the thermal expansion of fluids, primarily, liquid hydrocarbons at various temperatures and densities.

  6. 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.

  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 ...

  8. 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]

  9. Volume of fluid method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_of_fluid_method

    An illustration of fluid simulation using VOF method. In computational fluid dynamics, the volume of fluid (VOF) method is a free-surface modelling technique, i.e. a numerical technique for tracking and locating the free surface (or fluidfluid interface ). It belongs to the class of Eulerian methods which are characterized by a mesh that is ...

  10. Discretization of Navier–Stokes equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discretization_of_Navier...

    Discretization of the Navier–Stokes equations of fluid dynamics is a reformulation of the equations in such a way that they can be applied to computational fluid dynamics. Several methods of discretization can be applied: Finite volume method; Finite elements method; Finite difference method

  11. Numerical methods in fluid mechanics - Wikipedia

    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 ...
