Transparent

This mineral, which in its transparent varieties is a most beautiful and costly gem, has been known from early times. 

Castile soap is manufactured from olive oil, transparent soap from decolorized fats and liquid green soap from KOH and vegetable oils. Soaps are sometimes superfatted in that they contain some free fatty acid. 

The specific nature of UV absorption for certain structures when combined with the high sensitivity of the method enables trace quantities (— 1 ppm) of molecules in a matrix transparent to UV beams to be analyzed. Benzene in cyclohexane is an example. 

Correlations on paper panels are made easier if a type log has been creafed of a fypical and complete sequence of the area. If this log is available as a transparency, it can be easily compared against the underlying paper copy. Type logs are also handy if the reservoir development has to be documented in reports or presentations. 

Whatever form of incremental development is considered, the benefits to the host facility should not be gained at the expense of reduced returns for the new project. Incremental and satellite projects can in many situations help to extend the production life of an old field or facilities, but care must be taken to ensure that the economics are transparent. 

Imaging plates are exposed similar to radiographic films. They are read out by a LASER-scanner to a digital image without any developing process. After optical erasing of the virtual picture the same IP can be used cyclic up to more than 1000 times. The life time is limited by the mechanical stability of the IP s. An IP consists of a flexible polymer carrier which is coated with the sensitive layer. This layer is covered with a thin transparent protective foil. 

D-CTViewer allows to create up to three different Isosurfaces inside the data volume with each having different color and transparency value. The number of polygons inside the Isosurface hull can be decimated using a special polygon reduction tool (Fig. 5).

Therefore, we only use this technique to align the systern In this way we put the rotation axis in the mean plane of the rough transparency (Figure la). 

On the other hand, the NDT service business has evolved towards a more open market, in which the prime contractor requires a transparent access to the data provided by the supplier, in order to ensure the comparison of data obtained from different sources and at different periods of time. Existing fomiats are most of the time proprietary formats released by instrument manufacturers, generally dealing with a unique NDT method and not including complementary information on the acquisition consequently, they fail to meet these requirements. 

Most important is the following Fig. 7c shows that the segregation can be detected also from that side where it does not extent to the surface. This confirms that the material is transparent for this kind of susceptibility measurements. That means, that also segregations can be detected, which are in the volume and do not extent to the surface. 

Perhaps the best discussions of the experimental aspects of the capillary rise method are still those given by Richards and Carver [20] and Harkins and Brown [21]. For the most accurate work, it is necessary that the liquid wet the wall of the capillary so that there be no uncertainty as to the contact angle. Because of its transparency and because it is wet by most liquids, a glass capillary is most commonly used. The glass must be very clean, and even so it is wise to use a receding meniscus. The capillary must be accurately vertical, of accurately known and uniform radius, and should not deviate from circularity in cross section by more than a few percent. 

Capillary pressure gradients and Marongoni flow induce flow in porous media comprising glass beads or sand particles [40-42], Wetting and spreading processes are an important consideration in the development of inkjet inks and paper or transparency media [43] see the article by Marmur [44] for analysis of capillary penetration in this context. 

A beautiful and elegant example of the intricacies of surface science is the formation of transparent, thermodynamically stable microemulsions. Discovered about 50 years ago by Winsor [76] and characterized by Schulman [77, 78], microemulsions display a variety of useful and interesting properties that have generated much interest in the past decade. Early formulations, still under study today, involve the use of a long-chain alcohol as a cosurfactant to stabilize oil droplets 10-50 nm in diameter. Although transparent to the naked eye, microemulsions are readily characterized by a variety of scattering, microscopic, and spectroscopic techniques, described below. 

There are complicating issues in defmmg pseudopotentials, e.g. the pseudopotential in equation Al.3.78 is state dependent, orbitally dependent and the energy and spatial separations between valence and core electrons are sometimes not transparent. These are not insunnoimtable issues. The state dependence is usually weak and can be ignored. The orbital dependence requires different potentials for different angular momentum components. This can be incorporated via non-local operators. The distinction between valence and core states can be addressed by incorporating the core level in question as part of the valence shell. For...

A direct and transparent derivation of the second virial coefficient follows from the canonical ensemble. To make the notation and argument simpler, we first assume pairwise additivity of the total potential with no angular contribution. The extension to angularly-mdependent non-pairwise additive potentials is straightforward. The total potential... 

The relationship between tlie lattice gas and the Ising model is also transparent in the alternative fomuilation of the problem, in temis of the number of down spins [i] and pairs of nearest-neighbour down spins [ii]. For a given degree of site occupation [i]. 

In this fonnalism, which is already far from transparent, the internal energy is given by IJ -... 

One of the well known advantages of resonance Raman spectroscopy is that samples dissolved in water can be studied since water is transparent in the visible region. Furthennore, many molecules of biophysical interest assume their native state in water. For this reason, resonance Raman spectroscopy has been particularly strongly embraced in the biophysical connnunity.
