In part I, a stochastic rain texture model and multi-resolution simulation of raindrop impact on solid object were discussed.
The analysis is complemented with a fatigue stress-life estimation process that integrates elements of fatigue life calculation with 3D fields of raindrops generated from the stochastic rain texture model to relate damage accumulation rates to rain intensities.
A stochastic rain texture model is developed to generate three-dimensional fields of raindrops consistent with the rainfall history at the turbine location by integrating the micro-structural properties of rain, i.e. raindrops size and spatial distribution with its integral properties such as the relationship between the average volume fraction of raindrops and rain intensity.
The result was an energetic scene in the rain, illustrated by this still, with hazy blue hues and various rocky textures.
There seems to be a light haze over each image, an after-the-rain texture and coloring (done by Ferguson) that gives the viewer a sense that each image was not simply produced and processed but lived in.
It is a bit disappointing to see Quantic Dream's storytellers move toward the supernatural and away from the gritty, hard-boiled texture of Heavy Rain, but I would be shocked if they did not pull it off with aplomb.
A History of the Sky enables the viewer to appreciate the rhythms of weather, the lengthening and shortening of days, and other atmospheric events on an immediate aesthetic level: the clouds, fog, wind, and rain form a rich visual texture, and sunrises and sunsets cascade across the screen.
The interaction between rainfall variability, soil texture, and water recharge has been described qualitatively by Noy-Meir as the 'inverse texture effect' [ 1], but the effect of different rain patterns on plant growth in arid and mesic regions has not been studied and quantified yet.
For example, simulations for North-American deserts have indicated that soil texture, the context of rain events regarding antecedent soil moisture, and the clustering of rain events are important factors controlling plant growth [ 15].
They were durably ugly-pretty, with the texture of a cowboy rain slicker.
What caused the argument in "Rain Room" is unclear, but the texture of a lovers' quarrel is wittily captured, as paint-by-numbers becomes, in a Merrillesque pun, "pain-by-numbers": You did the blues, I did the reds.
