All the proposed structural countermeasures are characterised by the addition of few elements to the original structure, i.e. punctual masses and/or additional cables located in specific sections to reduce vertical and longitudinal relative displacements of the suspension cables, in order to preserve the bridge lightness and slenderness.
All in all, it felt less substantial than classic Dickens, but something in that very lightness preserved the atmosphere and texture that are among his writing's greatest charms.
Whereas our method is able to preserve the image structures in the result image, the method considering the lightness channel fails to protect image edges because of using only the lightness channel of the images while obtaining image gradient norms, as seen in Figure 15c,d.
This lightness of being partly explains why Hong Kong never developed a distinctive culture of its own — unlike its sister port city, Shanghai, which, although overwhelmed recently by development, has actually managed to preserve some of its old neighborhoods.
That the innocent Englishman gets his scoop from the millionaire, having fallen in love in the meantime... Lightness must be preserved.
Strong angle-dependent optical effects are observed in five different angles through multi-angle reflectance spectrum, while low lightness and low IR emissivity are preserved.
Therefore, the proposed method provides a useful lightness-contrast enhancement solution for the applications of image/video processing because of the flexible adjustability with image color preserving.
On the one hand, it performs global contrast enhancement to brighten up the areas of the image of poor contrast/lightness as well as preserving the regions of good contrast and without altering the color.
Influence of intraocular scattered light on lightness-scaling experiments.
Considering the lunar gravity, the Hamiltonian-structure-preserving (HSP) controller achieved by changing the sail's attitude and lightness number is developed to stabilize the sails' trajectories near the ALPs.
