This paper is about a development process of a novel sound effect device, which resembles ordinary spray can, with the purpose of adding sound elements to existing spray paint art. To this end, we first investigate the processes and the characteristics of spray paint art and find the common elements that can be expressed in an auditory form. We then design a prototype using Arduino and various ...

A THESIS ON TECHNIQUES FOR NON-PHOTOREALISTIC SHADING USING REAL PAINT by Reynold J. Bailey ADVISOR: Professor Cindy Grimm May, 2004 Saint Louis, Missouri The goal of this research is to explore techniques for shading 3D computer generated models using scanned images of actual paint samples. The techniques presented emphasize artistic control of brush stroke texture and color. We first demonstr...

Objective: The most essential requirement of a provisional crown is an adequate marginal fit which necessary for maintaining optimal periodontal health and protect the tooth from physical, chemical, thermal, bacterial injuries. purpose this in vitro study was to evaluate compare vertical accuracy materials using four different material systems (Autopolymerized PMMA powder-liquid system, light-a...

A laboratory test with a flow-through system was designed and its applicability for testing antifouling paints of varying efficacies was investigated. Six different formulations of antifouling paints were prepared to have increasing contents (0 to 40 wt.%) of Cu2O, which is the most commonly used antifouling substance, and each formulation of paint was coated on just one surface of every test p...

When teacher salaries are discussed, two very different pictures often emerge. The first of these portrays teachers as underpaid, overworked servants of the public good. The second paints a picture of an overpaid group of civil servants who spend very little time actually working. As we might expect, reality is somewhere between these two extremes. This report looks at Michigan teacher salaries...

Could titanium-clean air be how advertisers one day try to sell us the virtues of paint or even clothing that reduces the pollution caused by automobiles? The technology behind such products involves the well-known ability of titanium dioxide (TiO2) to photocatalytically split water to form hydroxyl and peroxyl radicals, a reaction that has already been harnessed to make self-cleaning windows. ...

Environmentally Safe and Effective Processes for Paint Removal Paint stripping and repainting of aircraft surfaces arc requircd periodically during thc operating lifetime of an aircraft. Historically, paint removal has been achieved using chemical strippers, involving materials which contain toxic components and which create hazardous working conditions. The process generates large amounts of h...

The present work attempts to find the gap between agreement level and adoption level of various supply chain management (SCM) practices in paint companies who are operating in India. An empirical study was carried out with paint companies. Paired samples ttest was used to find out the difference in agreement and adoption level of various SCM practices and multiple regression analysis was used t...
