Texture streaming is a means of using data streams for textures, where each texture is available in two or more different resolutions, as to determine which texture should be loaded into memory and used based on draw distance from the viewer and how much memory is available for textures. Texture streaming allows a rendering engine to use low ...
Fluted columns are common in the tradition of classical architecture but were not invented by the ancient Greeks, but rather passed down or learned from the Mycenaeans or the Egyptians. [ 2 ] Especially in stone architecture, fluting distinguishes the column shafts and pilasters visually from plain masonry walls behind. [ 3 ]
Top: Traditional scaling, corners are distorted. Bottom: 9-slice scaling, corners aren't distorted. 9-slice scaling (also known as Scale 9 grid, 9-slicing or 9-patch) is a 2D image resizing technique to proportionally scale an image by splitting it in a grid of nine parts.
In video games, an open world is a virtual world in which the player can approach objectives freely, as opposed to a world with more linear and structured gameplay. [1] [2] Notable games in this category include The Legend of Zelda (1986), Grand Theft Auto V (2013) and Minecraft (2011).
Fluted moraines mainly developed in till surfaces on land, but some have been found in shallow glacimarine settings. [1] [2] [3] Finally, in glaciology, fluting is used in older publications for smooth, deep, gutterlike channels or furrows cut by glaciers into the stoss side of a rocky hill obstructing its advance. Fluting is larger than ...
A composite sandwich panel (A) with honeycomb core (C) and face sheets (B) In combination with two skins applied on the honeycomb, the structure offers a sandwich panel with excellent rigidity at minimal weight. The behavior of the honeycomb structures is orthotropic, meaning the panels react differently depending on the orientation of the ...
Sandwich structures can be widely used in sandwich panels, with different types such as FRP sandwich panel, aluminium composite panel, etc. FRP polyester reinforced composite honeycomb panel (sandwich panel) is made of polyester reinforced plastic, multi-axial high-strength glass fiber and PP honeycomb panel in special antiskid tread pattern ...
A fluted moraine, also called a fluted moraine surface, is a moraine whose surface exhibits numerous glacial flutes. The long axes of these flutes are parallel to the flow direction of the glacier. Fluted moraines are typically associated with terrestrial glaciers, but some have been found in glaciomarine settings. [1] [3] [6]
