Spherical
Definition:
(a.) Alt. of Spheric
Example Sentences:
(1) The authors have presented in two previous articles the graphic solutions resembling Tscherning ellipses, for spherical as well as for aspherical ophthalmic lenses free of astigmatism or power error.
(2) This lack of symmetry in shape and magnitude may be due to non-sphericity of the skull over the temporal region or to variations in conductivities of intervening tissues.
(3) As a consequence of deformation from spherical-to-cylindrical shape in the microvasculature, demands for increased surface membrane area leads to increases in surface membrane tension above critical levels for rupture, and the cancer cells are rapidly and lethally damaged.
(4) From the different shapes of the scattering curves of the native phosphofructokinase at pH 7.5 in the presence of 15 mM ATP and of the cross-linked tetramer or octamer, it can be inferred that the shapes of the protomers are different: in the presence of ATP the protomers are elongated, having an axial ratio of 1.8 to 2.0; the cross-linked state reveals a spherical protomer of radius 33.0 A, similar to that of the native enzyme at pH 7.5 in the presence of fructose 6-phosphate or fructose 1,6-bisphosphate.
(5) Equivalent viewing power (EVP), field of view, and working distance (WD) were calculated for 4 different magnifier equivalent powers, four magnifier-to-eye distances, and for uncorrected spherical ametropias varying from +20.00 to -20.00 D in 0.25 D steps.
(6) A sound source is commonly spherical, therefore solutions are found for the wave equation in spherical coordinates, giving a precise meaning to the 'azimuthal' and 'magnetic quantum number' analogy.
