Visual Simulation of Wood Weathering
The aging process of material is an unavoidable natural phenomenon. Thus, several CG techniques for representing aging phenomena, such as metal corrosion and stone weathering, have been studied. In this paper, we propose a visual simulation method of wood weathering. First, we present the wood model in consideration of branching. Then, we give the algorithm for representing the weathering of th...
متن کاملPerformance Characterization of Coatings on Treated-wood
Coating performance is greatly influenced by the properties of the wood substrate. This study was focused on evaluating the performance of coatings on both preservative- and thermally-treated wood. A number of commercially formulated semi-transparent stains Alkyd, Alkyd-Acrylic and PU were applied on four different types of preservative treated and heat-treated wood and their performances were ...

متن کاملCoating Acetylated Wood
Wood exposed to the outdoor environment is susceptible to weathering due to a series of chemical, biological and physical processes. Acetylation of wood is known to reduce cell wall moisture content, improve dimensional stability and durability against fungal decay. As a result of these improvements, less stress is created between the coating and the wood surface improving the performance of th...
متن کاملPredicting Changes in Coating Properties during Weathering
Coatings are very important for controlling appearance of, and providing protection to, equipment and infrastructure components. The weathering durability of coatings is thus a very important determinant of the lifetime of the equipment. Coating properties may be related to how the surface or bulk of the coating are affected by the environment. Gaussian statistics or Monte Carlo simulations may...
