Decoration pattern

Damascus steel, also known in the Western world as Damascene steel, is a special type of steel that was and is still used to make sward and knifeblades. Apparently, Damascus steel was first made in India, where it was known as wootz or kuft, and later (during the second century b.c.e.) it was developed in Persia. The name "Damascus steel" was used by the Crusaders to describe the steel used by sword smiths of Damascus, Syria, famous for their ability to hammer and temper the steel into fine blades. The sword blades made from the steel had a reputation for their exceptional properties, especially their toughness, the retention of their cutting edge, as well as for a particular and characteristic decorative pattern on their surface (Figiel 1991). 

The Boehringer Ingelheim group chose a pyridone-based core structure to replace the -Glu-Glu-Ile- tripeptide of the generic SH2 domain recognition sequence [130]. From a series of more than 200 analogues, pyridones with mutually different decoration patterns were identified to result in pTyr derivatives with submicromolar affinities (e.g., 55,56) for the Lck SH2 domain [130]. 

The use of this nigello emphasized by Theophilus is for inlaying metal articles in decorative patterns and the method of application is also described in detail. 

A typical Bitter decoration pattern for ErNi2B2C (Vinnikov et al., 2005) in the antiferromagnetic state is shown in Figure 56(a). Bands of vortices aligned along... 

Cover the pie with the remaining round. Turn the edges of the bottom crust over the top edges and flute together. To allow steam to vent, make holes in the top crust. You can create a decorative pattern with a fork or a cookie cutter. I like heart cutouts, but simple slits with a knife will do the job too. 

Linen straw is finely-woven or braided straw that is finished or treated to imitate fine linen fabric. Fine decorative patterns have been made of straw applied to wood or fabric, and then coated with lacquer or resin. This art is practiced today in Russia, Belarus, and parts of Eastern Europe (see Figure 4.8). 

Enamelling consists of forming an adherent glass on the metal surface. Surfaces treated in this way are resistant to attack from acids and weak alkalis. The glasses may be coloured and formed into decorative patterns for household ware and jewellery and are prodcued from a mixture of oxides of silicon, boron, sodium, calcium, and lead. Secondary elements are also added, e.g. nitrates and manganese dioxide, which oxidise impurities, other oxides to aid adhesion to the metal surface, and pigments to impart colour and opacity. 

This clearly resembles the inhibition mode of the serine and cysteine protease inhibitors described above. Iterative refinement (Figure 1.18), e.g., by variation of ring size and symmetrization of the functional decoration pattern, combined with subsequent extrapolation of the renin-specific finding to the entire aspartate protease family, is the apparent basis for a new generation of nonpeptide, lead-like inhibitors with multiple therapeutically relevant endpoint opportunities. The five-membered 3,4-di(aminomethyl)-pyrrolidine (Figure 1.18) served as the core structure for highly active aspartate protease inhibitors [101]. 

Figure 1.18 The initial display returned by the action of the Isomers command button of the GT Calculator followed by the interrogation sequence in which the decoration pattern is chosen, here for the 120-vertex cage, the great rhombicosadodecahedron.

The number of chiral pairs, for a given decoration pattern, the number of times the deter-minantally antisymmetric character" appears in the decoration character. From this result the number of achiral structures is obtained as the difference between the total number of decoration isomers possible and the number of chiral pairs. The total number of isomers is the... 

Figure 1.20 illustrates the alternative sequence of displays for such cases, the example of a C720 fullerene cage formed as 6 x Ceo and 3 x C120 orbits with a decoration pattern corresponding to six different decoration elements xyzuvw i.e. six different atoms on six distinct positions on the C720 fullerene cage. 

There are 6 five-fold rotational symmetry elements in an object of Ih point symmetry. Thus, in Figure 2.19b the 120 vertices of the great rhombicosidodecahedron are arranged in sets of 10 about the poles of these axes on the unit sphere. That construction emphasises that uniform contractions of these sets about these axes points will return the 12-vertex Platonic solid, the icosahedron, in which each vertex has Csv site symmetry. There are 10 three-fold rotational axes and, so, in Figure 2.19c the decoration pattern is arranged to divide the 120 vertices into sets of 6 about the 20 poles of these axes on the unit sphere. Again, uniform contraction of these subsets of vertices onto these positions on the unit sphere generates the fifth Platonic solid, the dodecahedron, and the site symmetry each vertex is Csy. 

Printed - (35%) surfaces are decorative pattern or simulated wood grain effects created by the application of liquid applied basecoats, inks and protective topcoats to lauan or other tropical hardwoods. 

Hot transfers are used to provide parts with a decorative pattern or lettering. They comprise a pre-printed transfer film, on which the design has been applied. A heated spatula or plate is used to transfer coating from the film to the plastic. Water-based adhesives are also used to adhere printed transfers to plastics. 

Knoop hardness See test, Knoop hardness, knot 1. An imperfection or nonhomogeneity in materials that are used in fabric construction, the presence of which causes surface defects. 2. See yarn, knot tenacity. 3. A joining by tying substances together. See joining. 4. In wood, the portion of a branch that has become incorporated in the body of a tree that is either attractive when used as a decorative pattern or a potential weak section when used in construction. See wood. 

There are three layers in decorative floor covering. The second and the third layers are made from PVC with composition given in the table above. The surface layer is made from polyethylene terephthalate film which protects decorative patterns printed by gravure printing under polyethylene terephthalate film. 

The heat resistance and water-white color of melamine polymers make them ideally suited for use in the home as high-quality molded dinnerware melamine-surfaced decorative laminates find wide application in the home. The decorative pattern may be a solid color, a wood grain, or any design. 

Block flooring n. End grain blocks glued down in decorative patterns.
