  2. Coffee ring effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffee_ring_effect

    The coffee-ring pattern is detrimental when uniform application of a dried deposit is required, such as in printed electronics. It can be suppressed by adding elongated particles, such as cellulose fibers, to the spherical particles that cause the coffee-ring effect. The size and weight fraction of added particles may be smaller than those of ...

  3. Caustic (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caustic_(optics)

    Controlling caustic pattern is rather a challenging problem as very minor changes of the surface will significantly affect the quality of the pattern since light ray directions might be interfered by other light rays as they intersect with and refract through the material. This will lead to a scattered, discontinuous pattern.

  4. Vortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex

    In fluid dynamics, a vortex (pl.: vortices or vortexes) [1] [2] is a region in a fluid in which the flow revolves around an axis line, which may be straight or curved. [3] [4] Vortices form in stirred fluids, and may be observed in smoke rings, whirlpools in the wake of a boat, and the winds surrounding a tropical cyclone, tornado or dust devil.

  5. Ringing artifacts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringing_artifacts

    Fraunhofer diffraction yields the Airy disk as point spread function, which has a ringing pattern. The Bessel function of the first kind, , which is related to the Airy function, exhibits such decay. In cameras, a combination of defocus and spherical aberration can yield circular artifacts ("ring" patterns). However, the pattern of these ...

  7. Schlieren photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlieren_photography

    Schlieren photography is a process for photographing fluid flow. Invented by the German physicist August Toepler in 1864 to study supersonic motion, it is widely used in aeronautical engineering to photograph the flow of air around objects.

  8. Flow visualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_visualization

    The flow can either be given in a finite representation or as a smooth function. Texture advection methods that "bend" textures (or images) according to the flow. As the image is always finite (the flow through could be given as a smooth function), these methods will visualize approximations of the real flow.
