The problem of blend formation in generative linguistics is interesting in the context of neologism, their quick adoption in modern life and the creative generative process guiding their formation. Blend quality depends on multitude of factors with high degrees of uncertainty. In this work, we investigate if the modern neural network models can sufficiently capture and recognize the creative bl...

In this study, a novel fibrous membrane of hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC)/poly(vinyl alcohol) blend was successfully fabricated by electrospinning technique and characterized. The concentration of HEC (5%) with PVA (15%) was optimized, blended in different ratios (30-50%) and electrospun to get smooth nanofibers. Nanofibrous membranes were made water insoluble by chemically cross-linking by gluta...

vars had greater grain yield than their component pure lines on average. Furthermore, they reported that blend Genetically diverse plant populations may be better able to exploit response varied among different combinations of culecological resources and reduce interplant competition than genetitivars. cally homogeneous populations. Cultivar blends can have greater proMost oat, soybean, and whe...

To blend between basic implicitly deened CSG surfaces we propose to use the zero set of a spline in three variables. The resulting blend surface is generically curvature continuous, of algebraic degree four independent of the number of surfaces joined, and supports both point classiication and eecient rendering. A detailed exposition of the 2D analogue blend construction is given.

In the present study, Floating Drug Delivery Beads (FDDS) were prepared with sodium alginate/ starch blend as a matrix, sodium hydrogen carbonate as a pore forming agent, methyl cellulose as a binder and barium chloride solution as a hardening agent. In order to prepare the beads with different porosity and morphology the ratio between pore forming agent to polymer blend and ratio of the co...

Skeletal animation is commonly used for real-time animation of humans, animals, etc. There are several methods available for propagating a skeleton pose to a skin mesh, but unfortunately, one of the most commonly used methods, linear blend skinning, has inconvenient artifacts. It is, however, a simple and very fast method, and it can easily be implemented on a GPU. An improved skinning method, ...

Silk sericin (SS)/silk fibroin (SF) blend nanofibers have been produced by electrospinning in a binary SS/SF trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) solution system, which was prepared by mixing 20 wt.% SS TFA solution and 10 wt.% SF TFA solution to give different compositions. The diameters of the SS/SF nanofibers ranged from 33 to 837 nm, and they showed a round cross section. The surface of the SS/SF nan...

The R410A refrigerant blend (GWP = 2088), a near azeotropic and equimass mixture of difluoromethane (R32, GWP 675) pentafluoroethane (R125, 3500), has been included in the HFC phase down road map established worldwide. In this context, recovery value-added R32 from using membrane technology would be breakthrough refrigeration air conditioning sector, given that conventional distillation cannot ...

This paper reports an algorithm for deletion of blends (or fillets) from Boundary Representation (B-rep) solid models. Blend deletion is usually performed as the first step in feature recognition since it simplifies the model for recognition of volumetric features. The algorithm handles several blend types that include face-face, face-edge and vertex blends. It also handles interactions of blen...

The presence of defects in cold mercerizing of cotton goods led to the creation of a new method, called hot mercerizing in which caustic soda solution is used at a high temperature. Hot mercerizing is successfully used in cotton blended with some other fibers. In cotton/polyester blend fabrics, this treatment serves a dual purpose: subjectively, it imparts a silklike &#10&#10&#10soft handle to ...
