Turbulent plane Couette flow with wall-transpiration
No full textIn the present abstract, DNS results obtained for turbulent plane Couette flow with wall-normal transpiration velocity are presented. Important equations valid in such a flow are derived, describing the total shear stress and the relation between the friction velocities at the lower and upper wall. These expressions are of importance, as there are neither experimental nor DNS data to compare with. Equally important, we derive a center region and a viscous sublayer velocity scaling for the suction wall, which were both validated using the DNS data

Glaucoma is still one of the leading causes of the blindness and low vision. According to the World Health Organization, an estimated number of glaucoma patients is 60.5 to 105 million and is growing steadily. In many highly developed countries, glaucoma accounts for 13–28% of blindness. High intraocular pressure (IOP) is the most important risk factor for glaucomatous optic neuropathy and low vision in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). It was demonstrated that IOP lowering to the individual tolerant level in POAG preserves vision for a long time.
The paper discusses potential adoption of of the software for the calculation of tolerant IOP in POAG. Tolerant IOP calculations will help to adjust treatment in time to achieve individual IOP normal ranges, to predict glaucoma stabilization or progression as well glaucoma progression rate. The algorithm of treatment strategy for POAG is described.
Key words: glaucoma, primary open-angle glaucoma, intraocular pressure, tolerant IOP, glaucomatous optic neuropathy, prostaglandin analogue, latanoprost, Trilactan.
