  2. Isochoric process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isochoric_process

    An isochoric process is exemplified by the heating or the cooling of the contents of a sealed, inelastic container: The thermodynamic process is the addition or removal of heat; the isolation of the contents of the container establishes the closed system; and the inability of the container to deform imposes the constant-volume condition.

  3. Ishihara test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ishihara_Test

    Some pseudo-isochromatic plate books have the pages in binders, so the plates may be rearranged periodically to give a random order to the test. Since its creation, the Ishihara Color Blindness Test has become commonly used worldwide because of its easy use and high accuracy.

  4. Color vision test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_vision_test

    An Ishihara test image as seen by subjects with normal color vision and by those with a variety of color deficiencies. A pseudoisochromatic plate (from Greek pseudo, meaning "false", iso, meaning "same" and chromo, meaning "color"), often abbreviated as PIP, is a style of standard exemplified by the Ishihara test, generally used for screening of color vision defects.

  5. Photoelasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoelasticity

    Photoelastic model to validate the stiffener model. Isochromatic fringe patterns around a steel platelet in a photo-elastic two-part epoxy resin. Photoelasticity has been used for a variety of stress analyses and even for routine use in design, particularly before the advent of numerical methods, such as finite elements or boundary elements.

  6. Isentropic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isentropic_process

    The equal sign refers to a reversible process, which is an imagined idealized theoretical limit, never actually occurring in physical reality, with essentially equal temperatures of system and surroundings. [10] [11] For an isentropic process, if also reversible, there is no transfer of energy as heat because the process is adiabatic; δQ = 0 ...

  7. Isothermal process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isothermal_process

    An isothermal process is a type of thermodynamic process in which the temperature T of a system remains constant: ΔT = 0. This typically occurs when a system is in contact with an outside thermal reservoir, and a change in the system occurs slowly enough to allow the system to be continuously adjusted to the temperature of the reservoir through heat exchange (see quasi-equilibrium).

  8. Chromatic aberration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromatic_aberration

    Focal length of lens varies with the color of light Photographic example showing a high quality lens (top) compared to a lower quality one exhibiting transverse chromatic aberration (seen as a blur and a rainbow edge in areas of contrast)

  9. Isochronic tones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isochronic_tones

    Isochronic tones are regular beats of a single tone that are used alongside monaural beats and binaural beats in the process called brainwave entrainment. At its simplest level, an isochronic tone is a tone that is being turned on and off rapidly. They create sharp, distinctive pulses of sound.
