This paper proposes a new texture descriptor to guide the search and retrieval in image databases. It extracts rich information from global and local primitives of textured images. At a higher level, the global macro-features ...

Starches from diverse sources have different thermal properties and, thus, show different gelatinization degrees under a specific extrusion condition, which affects the quality of the extrudates. To find the appropriate ...

Surface texturing is a promising approach to tailor friction and wear between rubbing surfaces in mechanical components. In this study, surface textures with different geometries and shapes were fabricated on hardened steel ...

The objective of this research is to assess the influences of basal canker on wood properties for the kraft pulp production. The material consisted of seeded E. grandis trees classified into 4 levels of basal canker severity ...
