  2. MUSCL scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUSCL_scheme

    MUSCL scheme. In the study of partial differential equations, the MUSCL scheme is a finite volume method that can provide highly accurate numerical solutions for a given system, even in cases where the solutions exhibit shocks, discontinuities, or large gradients. MUSCL stands for Monotonic Upstream-centered Scheme for Conservation Laws (van ...

  3. Spherical aberration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_aberration

    Spherical aberration of collimated light incident on a concave spherical mirror. In optics, spherical aberration ( SA) is a type of aberration found in optical systems that have elements with spherical surfaces. This phenomenon commonly affects lenses and curved mirrors, as these components are often shaped in a spherical manner for ease of ...

    July 26, 2019. ( 2019-07-26) Orange Is the New Black (sometimes abbreviated to OITNB) is an American comedy-drama television series created by Jenji Kohan for Netflix. [1] [2] The series is based on Piper Kerman 's memoir Orange Is the New Black: My Year in a Women's Prison (2010), about her experiences at FCI Danbury, a minimum security ...

  5. Eustachian tube dysfunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eustachian_tube_dysfunction

    Causes. Eustachian tube dysfunction can be caused by a number of factors. Some common causes include the flu, allergies, a cold, and sinus infections. [6] In patients with chronic ear disease such as cholesteatoma and chronic discharge, studies showed that they have obstructive pathology at the ear side of the Eustachian tube.

  6. Fallopian tube obstruction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallopian_tube_obstruction

    Fallopian tube obstruction. Fallopian tube obstruction, also known as fallopian tube occlusion, is a major cause of female infertility. Blocked fallopian tubes are unable to let the ovum and the sperm converge, thus making fertilization impossible.

  7. Hierarchy problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchy_problem

    Technical definition. A hierarchy problem [2] occurs when the fundamental value of some physical parameter, such as a coupling constant or a mass, in some Lagrangian is vastly different from its effective value, which is the value that gets measured in an experiment. This happens because the effective value is related to the fundamental value ...

  8. Corrective Optics Space Telescope Axial Replacement

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_Optics_Space...

    The Corrective Optics Space Telescope Axial Replacement ( COSTAR) is an optical correction instrument designed and built by NASA. It was created to correct the spherical aberration of the Hubble Space Telescope ' s primary mirror, which incorrectly focused light upon the Faint Object Camera (FOC), Faint Object Spectrograph (FOS), and Goddard ...

  9. Packing problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_problems

    Packing problems are a class of optimization problems in mathematics that involve attempting to pack objects together into containers. The goal is to either pack a single container as densely as possible or pack all objects using as few containers as possible. Many of these problems can be related to real-life packaging, storage and ...
