Walking on daylight : the application of translucent floor systems as a means of achieving natural daylighting in mid and low rise architecture
… of quality daylight to buildings by means of translucency in the horizontal planes or floors within the building. Since people began to build, the concept of translucency in the vertical planes. the walls of a building, has served as the basis for continual invention in structural systems and …

The effect of repetitive firing cycles on physical and optical properties of zirconia reinforced lithium silicate ceramics
… repetitive firing cycles’ effects on the translucency, light’s absorption coefficient, and flexural strength of zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate ceramics. Two zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate ceramics and one lithium disilicate glass-ceramic were tested. Blocks of all materials …

Factors affecting the quality of low-fat cheeses
… This was reversed when cheeses were cooled. Translucency and rheology were studied in low-fat Mozzarella cheese at high temperatures for different holding times. Increasing temperature and holding times reduced translucency. Excessive heat treatments led to slight increase in translucency. …

Application of Optical CT to Estimate the Mass of Macroalgae in a Tank of Water
… from various points. The images capture the translucency along various light paths through the container. From the translucency measurements, computed tomography techniques are used to reconstruct the optical density at points on the interior of the container. The mass of the macroalgae is …

Effect of sintering protocols on zirconia with various YTTRIA concentrations
… of different sintering protocols on density, translucency, microstructure, crystallography, and biaxial flexural strength of different yttria concentrations of Tosoh zirconia materials (TZ-3YSB-E, TZ-3YB-E, Zpex, and Zpex Smile). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 242 zirconia discs were …

Discourse on Lightness
… the correlations of light, transparency, translucency, opacity, diffusion, reflection, floatation and lightness. It explores the crucial relationship of its bold tensile structure with the habitable spaces.

The effect of on-farm husbandry and housing conditions on pigmeat quality and eating characteristics.
… assessed for hardness, resistance to cutting and translucency. Highly significant differences (p<0.01) were found between farms for all features. Pig group size and dust concentrations were the main housing determinants. The fatty acid profile of a sub-set of samples was measured using Gas Liquid …

Architectures and Design Automation for Photonic Networks On Chip
… wave-division multiplexing and bandwidth-power translucency to distance traveled. In practice, physical-layer design and engineering issues such as optical loss, crosstalk, and packaging have slowed its entry into widespread adoption at the chip and board scale. In this work, we present these …

Futurity
… "Futurity" celebrates the richness of color, translucency, reflectivity, curvilinear geometry, and high craftsmanship. Within these low-relief works, dimension, depth, and mirrored luminosity arise from an ongoing dialogue between digital design and human craftsmanship. The objective is to …

QUANTUM AND TRANSLUCENT PARADIGMS IN AUTOMATA THEORY: A STUDY ON COMPUTATIONAL CAPABILITIES
… introduced in the literature: quantum and translucency. Specifically, we investigate Quantum Finite State Automata (QFAs) and Deterministic Pushdown Automata with Translucent Letters (DPDAwtl’s). QFAs can be regarded as classical finite state automata using quantum phenomena as …

Painting in Stone: The Symbolism of Colored Marbles in the Visual Arts and Literature from Antiquity until the Enlightenment
… to bear light due to its polish and occasional translucency; and the longue durée that colored marbles constituted a form of natural (hence divine) painting. The use of marble in architecture and sculpture, as well as its depiction in painting and its description in literature, is examined from …

A Machine Learning Based Visible Light Communication Model Leveraging Complementary Color Channel
… or color channels to encode bits into the pixel translucency or color intensity changes with over-the-shelf smart devices. Specifically, Uber-in-light proves to be an successful model encoding data into the color intensity changes that only requires over-the-shelf devices. However, Uber-in-light …
