Departures from a regular texture pattern can happen in many di erent dimensions. Previous related work has focused on faithful texture synthesis for near-regular texture departing along the color and intensity axes while the underlying geometric regularity is well preserved. In this paper, we address the issue of faithful texture synthesis for textures that have both the structural and color/i...

ÐThis paper studies the recovery of shape from texture under perspective projection. We regard Shape from Texture as a statistical estimation problem, the texture being the realization of a stochastic process. We introduce warplets, which generalize wavelets over the 2D affine group. At fine scales, the warpogram of the image obeys a transport equation, called Texture Gradient Equation. In orde...

The microstructure and texture evolution of Ti-5Al-5Mo-5V-1Cr-Fe alloy during hot compression were investigated by the electron backscatter diffraction technique. The results reveal that two main texture components containing <100> and <111> fiber textures form after the hot compression. The fraction of each component is mainly controlled by deformation and strain rate. Dynamic strain-induced b...

The effect of strain rate on the deformation texture of alpha-iron ( -Fe) is studied at different strain levels during the deformation. Two shear compression specimens (SCS) were deformed in three consecutive stages at room temperature, one at 10 /s and the other at 10 /s, to the same strain level. The crystallographic textures were determined using electron backscattered diffraction. The textu...

Diamond anvil cells may not only impose pressure upon a sample but also a compressive stress that produces elastic and plastic deformation of polycrystalline samples. The plastic deformation may result in texture development if the material deforms by slip or mechanical twinning, or if grains have a non-equiaxed shape. In radial diffraction geometry, texture is revealed by variation of intensit...

Real-time free-form deformation tools are primarily based on surface or particle representations to allow for interactive modification and fast rendering of complex models. The efficient handling of volumetric representations, however, is still a challenge and has not yet been addressed sufficiently. Volumetric models, on the other hand, form an important class of representation in many applica...

Three alloys of Al-Mg with and without scandium are cold worked at different percentage and then annealed. The texture behavior of the alloys is studied by X-ray diffraction technique. The X-ray diffraction analysis is done using a PHILIPS PW1830 diffractometer with Cu-Kα radiation. It is found that the addition of scandium in Al-6Mg alloy influences the development of texture. The cube texture...

Sheet specimens of aluminum alloy 5754 were deformed along a series of bi-linear, equal-biaxial and uniaxial, strain paths while simultaneously measuring stress–strain behavior. The Visco-Plastic Self-Consistent crystal plasticity model, which incorporates texture evolution, was used to simulate the flow stress and hardening behavior based in part on the measured crystallographic texture before...

In this paper, we present a new interactive 2D deformation technique to make caricatures with extreme exaggerations. In our technique, we use simplices as deformation primitives. User defined source and target shapes of each simplex primitive define local coordinates. These local coordinates determine a unique translation vector for any given point in 2D space. We also provide a set of blending...

There are many causes of deformation in an image and one of which during its acquisition to a digital image. The deformation takes different forms or causes different effects on the acquired image comparing with the original image including poor resolution, shear, noise, variation in the intensity and etc. A paper scanned by a scanner is a good example of possible deformation in images. Consequ...
