orphan date December 2008 unreferenced date December 2008 Electron beam texturing EBT is a technology used to apply surface roughness roughness to the surface of rolling mill cylinders by impinging the surface of these cylinders with a modulated electron beam . The beam locally melts the surface of the cylinder, producing crater like depressions. The technology was originally developed by the German company Linotype Hell for application in the printing industry, but eventually found its successful application in the metal rolling industry, where it is competing with alternative texturing technologies, such as electrodischarge texturing .

FPrime is a popular previewing tool and rendering engine for LightWave 3D . Its rendering method is unique in the fact that it continuously refines images until the user manually specifies that the image is of adequate quality. This is opposed to traditional rendering methods in which the image being rendered cannot be refined by the renderer once completed. FPrime is widely considered to be much faster than the native LightWave rendering engine, allowing for real time previews of computationally intensive effects such as global illumination and node based surfacing. Although currently the native Lightwave Engine 9.5 is at a par in regard to speed, the workflow for texturing and lighting using FPrime is still unrivaled.

Gradient noise is a type of noise commonly used as a procedural texture primitive in computer graphics. It is conceptually different, and often confused with value noise . This method consists of a creation of a lattice of random gradients , which are then interpolated to obtain values in between the lattices. An artifact of some implementations of this noise is that the returned value at the lattice points is 0. Unlike the value noise, gradient noise has more energy in the high frequencies. The first implementation of a gradient noise function is credited to Ken Perlin , who published the description of it in 1985. This noise is now commonly known as the Perlin noise . ref David Ebert, Kent Musgrave, Darwyn Peachey, Ken Perlin, and Worley. Texturing and Modeling A Procedural Approach.

The texture is stored on removable media or a computer s hard drive and streamed as needed, allowing large amounts of detail and variation over a large area with comparatively little RAM usage. Depending on the pixel resolution per square meter, covering a large area could require several gigabytes of memory. However, RAM is also filled by the rest of the game and the underlying operating system, limiting the amount available for texturing. As the player moves around the game, different sections of the megatexture are loaded into memory. They are then scaled to the correct size and applied to the 3D models of the terrain.

The function of the vertex pipeline in any Graphics processing unit GPU is to take geometry data usually supplied as vector points , work with it if needed with either fixed function processes earlier DirectX , or a vertex shader program later DirectX , and create all of the 3D data points in a scene to a 2D plane for display on a computer Computer display monitor . It is possible to eliminate unneeded data from going through the rendering pipeline to cut out extraneous work called view volume clipping and backface culling .

Value noise is a type of noise commonly used as a procedural texture primitive in computer graphics. It is conceptually different, and often confused with gradient noise examples of which are the Perlin noise and Simplex noise . This method consists of a creation of a lattice of points which are assigned random values. The noise function then returns the interpolated number based on the value of the neighboring lattice points. To improve the quality of the generated noise, multiple Octave electronics octaves of this noise can be generated and then summed together. This technique produces results very similar to Perlin noise at the cost of lower quality while having a simpler algorithm. ref David Ebert, Kent Musgrave, Darwyn Peachey, Ken Perlin, and Worley.

A texel , or tex ture el ement also tex ture pix el is the fundamental unit of texture space, ref Andrew Glassner , An Introduction to Ray Tracing , San Francisco Morgan&ndash Kaufmann, 1989 ref used in computer graphics . Textures are represented by arrays of texels, just as pictures are represented by arrays of pixel s. Texels can also be described by image regions that are obtained through a simple procedure such as thresholding. Voronoi tesselation can be used to define their spatial relationships. This means that a division is made at the half way point between the centroid of each texel and the centroids of every surrounding texel for the entire texture. The result is that each texel centroid will have a Voronoi polygon surrounding it. This polygon region consists of all points that are closer to its texel centroid than any other centroid. ref Linda G. Shapiro and George C.

Whitetopping is the covering of an existing asphalt pavement with a layer of Portland cement concrete . Whitetopping is divided into types depending on the thickness of the concrete layer and whether the layer is bonded to the asphalt substrate. Unbonded whitetopping, also called conventional whitetopping, uses concrete thicknesses of eight inches or more that is not bonded to the asphalt. Bonded whitetopping uses thicknesses of two to six inches bonded to the asphalt pavement and is divided into two types, thin and ultrathin. The bond is made by texturing the asphalt. Thin whitetopping uses a bonded layer of concrete that is four to six inches thick while an ultrathin layer is two to four inches thick. Ultrathin whitetopping is suitable for light duty uses, such as roads with low traffic volume, parking lot s and small airport s. Fiber reinforced concrete is used in some thin whitetopping overlays and almost all ultrathin whitetopping overlays. Whitetopping is suitable for asphalt pavement with little deterioration, although repairs can be made to the asphalt if necessary. If the pavement is badly damaged, it should be completely removed and a new concrete pavement should be installed. The pavement should be relatively hard, as well. Deterioration of overlays is significantly increased on asphalt bases with high viscosity . If a grade or a distance between the pavement and a bridge needs to be preserved, the asphalt can be milled so that the height of the pavement does not change. However, whitetopping requires the asphalt layer to be at least three inches thick. If necessary, a section of new concrete roadway can be placed under a bridge with gentle slopes on either side that meet up with the whitetopped portions of the road.
