Hand Specimen

The shape-preferred orientation (SPO) is a technique, which allows the study of the fabric of deformed rocks and understanding its dominant deformational style and partitioning. This work presents SPO results and methodological aspects for one hand specimen of rock and a high-resolution composed image of an outcrop through digital image processing. The technique involves imaging of three semi-orthogonal oriented sections for digital processing and subsequent implementation in structural software. The image processing consists of digital separation of a phase of interest, i.e. defining the deformational fabric. The processed images are then implemented in the SPO2003® software for acquisition of sectional ellipses and finally implemented in the Ellipsoid2003® software to obtain the characteristic ellipsoid of deformational fabric. For outcrops, due to the difficulty to finding three appropriate sections for photography, it was only obtained a sectional ellipse, characteristic of the rock fabric based on contrasting deformed quartz segregates in mylonitic schists.

INTRODUCTION.- The physical properties of rock masses are greatly influenced by their internal discontinuities, like pores and fissures. So, these need to be measured as a basis for interpretation. To avoid the basic difficulties of measurement under optical microscopy and analogic image systems, the authors use S.E.M. and multiband digital image processing. In S.E.M., analog signal processing has been used to further image enhancement (1), but automatic information extraction can be achieved by simple digital processing of S.E.M. images (2). The use of multiband image would overcome difficulties such as artifacts introduced by the relative positions of sample and detector or the typicals encountered in optical microscopy.DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING.- The studied rock specimens were in the form of flat deformation-free surfaces observed under a Phillips SEM model 500. The SEM detector output signal was recorded in picture form in b&w negatives and digitized using a Perkin Elmer 1010 MP flat microdensitometer.

Ceramic Design

From rest to exercise and from two-dimensional to three-dimensional, digital image processing software can be multi-angle, multi-dimension, multi-direction infiltration for the various fields of design, which has wide applications in every corner of digital media. Firstly, the digital image processing software can analyze the common digital processing system model. On the basis of the principle of RGB color histogram, it also can analyze its application in the ceramic design. According to the set of image transformation principle, the analysis of the geometric transformation plays an important role in in ceramic set, to provide the theoretical basis for the digital image processing software to a certain extent.

Ceramic Art

With the improvement of computer hardware and software performance, digital multimedia technology has been applied to various fields. The visual effect of ceramic art image is affected mainly by the brightness, texture and color, in which the image defects will affect the visual effect of the ceramic product. This paper designs the digital processing system of a new ceramic art image processing, the system can repair defects in ceramic art image. In order to verify the validity and reliability of digital processing system, the lead-free perovskite structure BZT based ceramics is prepared in this paper, and the use of electron microscope and digital camera take the ceramic products processing image with artistic defects, and then using VB programming digital image processing technology carries out color re coating for the ceramic, the ceramic products electron microscopy images after restoration will be obtained by the image boundary restructuring, which provides a new computer method for the processing art of the ceramic products.

Delamination Area

The percentages of delamination of Compacted Bamboo Guadua were calculated using digital images processing. Three processes were done in the development of this project: tests of delamination, digital image pre-processing and digital image processing of the images acquired. The test of delamination followed the ASTM 5824. The digital image pre-processing was supported on the acquisition of sequences of images, doing a sweeping of the samples, and finally the digital processing worked in the generation of panoramas with sequences of images acquired from the sample. Additionally, the total area from the sample was measured digitally, the segmentation and the measurement of delamination area were done, finding the ratio between the delamination area and the total area of the sample, and obtaining the value of percentage of delamination per section. Digitally, the obtained values for samples made with fibers obtained from Stick (Varillón), Top (Sobrebasa), Middle (Basa) parts and mixture of them were 16.97%, 9.96%, 5.96% and 8.64% respectively.
