This paper addresses the problem of quality inspection of regular textured surfaces as, e.g., encountered in industrial woven fabrics. The motivation for developing a novel approach is to utilize the template matching principle for defect detection in a way that does not need any particular statistical, structural or spectral features to be calculated during the checking phase. It is shown that...

A novel method of preparation of easily stripped-off temporary wound dressing material is described. A tri-layer membrane system for artificial skin is prepared in this study. In this process, the N-isopropyl acrylamide monomer is successfully grafted on the non-woven fabric by co-polymerization. It is initiated by plasma to activate the surface of the non-woven cloth. N-isopropyl acrylamide is...

Woven structures are steadily emerging as excellent reinforcing components in composite materials. Metallic woven meshes, unlike most woven fabrics, show high potential for strengthening via classical methods such as heat treatment. Development of strengthening processes for metallic woven materials, however, must account not only for behavior of the constituent wires, but also for the interact...

Background and objectives : The fracture of acrylic maxillary complete dentures is a commonly seen clinical problem which usually occurs due to heavy occlusal forces or accidental damage.The objectives of the study were to measure the impact strength of maxillary complete dentures fabricated with high impact acrylic resin and to evaluate the effect of woven E-glass fiber and silane treated glas...

A new species of cloud forest butterfly, Eretris julieta n. sp. is described from a region of south-central Bolivia known as the Elbow of the Andes. It is the southernmost known representative of the genus, hitherto known only from a restricted area of interandean valleys in the department of Santa Cruz. Its affinities with other congeners are evaluated.

Article Submission For inclusion in Hyperseeing, authors are invited to email articles for the preceding categories to: Articles should be a maximum of eight pages. Plain weaving is one of the most beautiful and widely used geometric forms. In plain weaving, a set of distinct threads (or yarns) are interlaced with each other to form a fabric or cloth where each thread crosses the other threads ...

The AspectJ programming language allows for the expression, in a compact way, of computations that affect several points in a program (join points), even without knowing where these point exactly are. This is claimed to ease the separation of cross-cutting code. However, it is not clear how real the separation is. In fact it might be difficult to figure out the behavior of the whole system. In ...
