A diamond plate texture rendered close-up using physically based rendering principles. Microfacet abrasions cover the material, giving it a rough, realistic look even though the material is a metal. Specular highlights are high and realistically modeled at the appropriate edge of the tread using a normal map.

Pabst Blue Ribbon, commonly abbreviated PBR, is an American lager beer sold by Pabst Brewing Company, established in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in 1844 and currently based in San Antonio, Texas. Originally called Best Select , and then Pabst Select , the current name comes from the blue ribbons tied around the bottle's neck between 1882 and 1916.
PBr 3 is prepared by treating red phosphorus with bromine. An excess of phosphorus is used in order to prevent formation of PBr 5: [1] [2] P 4 + 6 Br 2 → 4 PBr 3. Because the reaction is highly exothermic, it is often conducted in the presence of a diluent such as PBr 3. Phosphorus tribromide is also generated in situ from red phosphorus and ...
It is highly corrosive. It strongly irritates skin and eyes. [1] It decomposes above 100 °C to give phosphorus tribromide and bromine: [3] PBr 5 → PBr 3 + Br 2. Reversing this equilibrium to generate PBr 5 by addition of Br 2 to PBr 3 is difficult in practice because the product is susceptible to further addition to yield phosphorus ...
Performance-based regulation (PBR) is an approach to utility regulation designed to strengthen utility performance incentives. Thus defined, the term PBR is synonymous with incentive regulation. The two most common forms of PBR are award-penalty mechanisms (“APMs”) and multiyear rate plans (“MRPs”).
pBR322 is 4361 base pairs in length [1] and has two antibiotic resistance genes – the gene bla encoding the ampicillin resistance (Amp R) protein, and the gene tetA encoding the tetracycline resistance (Tet R) protein. It contains the origin of replication of pMB1, and the rop gene, which encodes a restrictor of plasmid copy number.
