  2. Slip (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_(materials_science)

    Slip systems in zirconium alloys. 𝒃 and 𝒏 are the slip direction and plane, respectively, and 𝝎 is the rotation axis calculated in the present work, orthogonal to both the slip plane normal and slip direction. The crystal direction of the rotation axis vectors is labelled on the IPF colour key.

  3. Petzval field curvature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petzval_field_curvature

    Field curvature: the image "plane" (the arc) deviates from a flat surface (the vertical line). Petzval field curvature, named for Joseph Petzval, [1] describes the optical aberration in which a flat object normal to the optical axis (or a non-flat object past the hyperfocal distance) cannot be brought properly into focus on a flat image plane.

  4. Eyeglass prescription - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyeglass_prescription

    A prescription of −1.00 +0.25 × 180 describes a lens that has a horizontal power of −1.00 D and a vertical power of −0.75 D. Only ophthalmologists write prescriptions in + cylinder. An optometrist would write a prescription in - (minus) cylinder. All spectacle and contact lenses would be made in minus cylinder.

    The second plane used in the analysis is the sagittal plane, defined as the plane orthogonal to the tangential plane and containing the chief ray before refraction (so along the original chief ray direction). This plane intersects the optical axis at the entrance pupil of the optical system.

  6. Critical resolved shear stress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_resolved_shear_stress

    The Schmid Factor for an axial applied stress in the [] direction, along the primary slip plane of (), with the critical applied shear stress acting in the [] direction can be calculated by quickly determining if any of the dot product between the axial applied stress and slip plane, or dot product of axial applied stress and shear stress ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank–Read_source

    Consider a straight dislocation in a crystal slip plane with its two ends, A and B, pinned. If a shear stress τ {\displaystyle \tau } is exerted on the slip plane then a force F = τ ⋅ b x {\displaystyle F=\tau \cdot bx} , where b is the Burgers vector of the dislocation and x is the distance between the pinning sites A and B, is exerted on ...

  9. Intraocular lens power calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraocular_lens_power...

    The aim of an accurate intraocular lens power calculation is to provide an intraocular lens (IOL) that fits the specific needs and desires of the individual patient. The development of better instrumentation for measuring the eye's axial length (AL) and the use of more precise mathematical formulas to perform the appropriate calculations have significantly improved the accuracy with which the ...
