Rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) are diagnostic assays designed for use at the point-of-care (POC), and can be adapted for use in low-resource settings. An RDT is low-cost, simple to operate and read, sensitive, specific, stable at high temperatures, and works in a short period of time. RDTs are already in use for several neglected diseases. 4, record 3, English, - rapid%20diagnostic%20test

La théorie de la distorsion rapide […] est un vieux concept souvent considéré comme complémentaire des approches par viscosité turbulente. L'idée de base de la distorsion rapide est de dire que dans un cisaillement les structures turbulentes interagissent moins entre elles qu'avec le cisaillement lui même. Le nom de la méthode en découle : les structures turbulentes sont déformées et dissipées (ou incorporées au cisaillement moyen) rapidement, avant de pouvoir interagir entre elles. À l'origine [cette théorie] a été introduite pour calculer l'évolution de structures turbulentes tourbillonaires dans un milieu homogène présentant en particulier un cisaillement constant. Hunt (1973) la généralisa au cas des cisaillements inhomogènes. La [théorie de la distorsion rapide] s'apparentait alors à l'équation linéarisée d'évolution d'une turbulence fluctuante (traitée comme une perturbation d'un écoulement moyen) créant par rétroaction des tensions de Reynolds modifiant l'écoulement moyen. 1, record 5, French, - %20th%C3%A9orie%20de%20la%20distorsion%20rapide
