MODELLING THE APPEARANCE OF HERITAGE METALLIC SURFACES

Modelling the appearance of heritage metallic surfaces

Polished metallic surfaces exhibit a high degree of specularity, which makes them difficult to reproduce accurately.We have applied two different techniques for modelling a heritage object known as the Islamic handbag.Photogrammetric multi-view stereo enabled a dense point cloud to be extracted PROGRESSIVE FULL CURE SET from a set of photographs wi

High Variability in Pre-Oviposition Time Independent of Diet Available at Eclosion: A key Reproductive Trait in the Ladybird Beetle Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) in Its Native Range

While insect predators need high-quality food to reach sexual maturity and reproduce, starvation following adult eclosion may occur when prey are missing in agroecosystems.This study explores whether the type of diet available at eclosion determines the future fecundity of newly emerged adult predators.In a laboratory experiment, three different di
