A new, to my knowledge, procedure for retrieving the wave aberration from the point-spread function is presented. It uses the Levenberg-Marquardt optimization algorithm in a mutiresolution pyramidal scheme. The method, tested with simulated large aberrations without initial estimates, accelerates convergence and avoids stagnation in local minima.

In this study, the three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer of stagnation-point flow in a nanofluid was investigated. The Navier–Stokes equations were reduced to a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations using a similarity transform. The similarity equations were solved for three types of nanoparticles: copper, alumina and titania with water as the base fluid, to inve...
