In use-wear analysis, traces remaining on the surfaces of stone tools are identified to reconstruct the method of operation of archaeological tools. Optical microscopy is traditionally used to ...

Cutoff filter is capable of measuring the wavelength at which the surface structure is differentiated between roughness and waviness data. For precise measurements, it is very important to choose the ...

Compatibility of the material for the diamond turning process is crucial to achieve clean cutting with reduced surface damage. Grain structure and the presence of impurities in the material affect ...

Three new surface finishes for as-cast formed concrete are defined in the new ACI 301-10 Specifications for Structural Concrete, which supersedes ACI 301-05. Rough-Form and Smooth-Form As-Cast ...

Although several studies deal with various types of surface textures and their usefulness, the commercial viability of the surface texture has hardly been empirically examined. A pioneering study ...

Adopted by the CSDA and recommended by ACI Committee 310, ST-115 is a quantifiable standard that designates floors by a surface texture grade. Since the moment polished concrete was born, it was ...

When a drywall patch flashes through fresh paint, it is rarely the repair itself that gives you away, it is the texture. The ...
