Creating Chinese ink paintings usually requires great skill, concentration, and years of training. This paper presents a novel real-time, automatic framework to convert images into Chinese ink painting style. Given an input image, we first construct its saliency map which captures the visual contents in perceptually salient regions. Next, the image is abstracted and its salient edges are calculated with the help of the saliency map. Then, the abstracted image is diffused by a non-physical ink diffusion process. -

Future Directions in Calendering Research
Preferred citation: T.C. Browne and R. H. Crotogino. Future Directions in Calendering Research. In The science of papermaking, Trans. of the XIIth Fund. Res. Symp. Oxford, 2001, (C.F. Baker, ed.), pp 1001–1036, FRC, Manchester, 2018. DOI: 10.15376/frc.2001.2.1001. FUTURE DIRECTIONS IN CALENDERING RESEARCH T.C. Browne and R.H. Crotogino Paprican Pointe-Claire, QC, Canada ABSTRACT Calendering is the papermaker’s last chance to reduce thickness variations along the length and width of the finished sheet, and to improve the sheet smoothness. A smoother sheet results in improved print quality, while more uniform thickness profiles improve the winding process. The calendering operation thus improves the quality of the finished product. In recent years there has been an increase in the loads, speeds and temperatures at which soft-nip calenders, whether on or off line, can be operated without mechanical failure of the cover; the result has been an improvement in the surface and printing properties achievable with mechanical printing grades of paper, and an increase in the production rates which can be sustained. As a result, these calen- ders have slowly replaced traditional machine calenders in new and retrofit installations. The best available design and trouble-shooting tools for modern machine calenders are based on empirical models, whose coefficients have not been related to fundamental paper or fibre properties. New furnishes therefore require experimental deter- mination of these coefficients, and extrapolation to new calender- ing conditions involves some risk. As well, there are no published models, empirical or otherwise, for the design and trouble- shooting of soft-nip calenders, an unfortunate state of affairs given the increased number of installations of these machines. -

Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 369 2nd International Conference on Humanities Education and Social Sciences (ICHESS 2019) Research on Design Strategy of Handmade Paper Products under the Concept of Cultural Consumption Shuyi Li1,a, Zhou Zhong2,b,*, Xiaopeng Peng3,c 1,2Guangdong University of Technology, Guangzhou 510090, China 3Zhongkai College of Agricultural Engineering, Guangzhou 510225, China [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] *Corresponding author Keywords: handmade paper, product design, cultural consumption, cultural heritage. Abstract. Handmade paper products are the carrier of disseminating folk culture. This article puts the design of handmade paper products under the context of cultural consumption concept, integrates modern design ideas, deeply analyzes market demand, and explores new ideas of product design.In the trend of cultural consumption, designers must dig deeply into the artistic characteristics of handmade paper, so that their products can be recognized by the society, establish cultural brands and integrate into the cultural life of the public. The design of handmade paper products needs emotional experience to get people's cultural resonance, and needs to guide people to better understand the cultural spirit behind handmade paper, so as to better inherit and develop traditional culture. 1. Introduction Traditional Chinese Arts and Crafts has a long history, among which the folk papermaking occupies an important historical position. The appearance of handmade paper can be traced back to the Western Han Dynasty. Later, after the improvement of Cai Lun of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a relatively stable papermaking method was formed. With the development of the times, the emergence of mechanization has changed the production mode of paper. -

Conservation of Coated and Specialty Papers
RELACT HISTORY, TECHNOLOGY, AND TREATMENT OF SPECIALTY PAPERS FOUND IN ARCHIVES, LIBRARIES AND MUSEUMS: TRACING AND PIGMENT-COATED PAPERS By Dianne van der Reyden (Revised from the following publications: Pigment-coated papers I & II: history and technology / van der Reyden, Dianne; Mosier, Erika; Baker, Mary , In: Triennial meeting (10th), Washington, DC, 22-27 August 1993: preprints / Paris: ICOM , 1993, and Effects of aging and solvent treatments on some properties of contemporary tracing papers / van der Reyden, Dianne; Hofmann, Christa; Baker, Mary, In: Journal of the American Institute for Conservation, 1993) ABSTRACT Museums, libraries, and archives contain large collections of pigment-coated and tracing papers. These papers are produced by specially formulated compositions and manufacturing procedures that make them particularly vulnerable to damage as well as reactive to solvents used in conservation treatments. In order to evaluate the effects of solvents on such papers, several research projects were designed to consider the variables of paper composition, properties, and aging, as well as type of solvent and technique of solvent application. This paper summarizes findings for materials characterization, degradative effects of aging, and some effects of solvents used for stain reduction, and humidification and flattening, of pigment-coated and modern tracing papers. Pigment-coated papers have been used, virtually since the beginning of papermaking history, for their special properties of gloss and brightness. These properties, however, may render coated papers more susceptible to certain types of damage (surface marring, embedded grime, and stains) and more reactive to certain conservation treatments. Several research projects have been undertaken to characterize paper coating compositions (by SEM/EDS and FTIR) and appearance properties (by SEM imaging of surface structure and quantitative measurements of color and gloss) in order to evaluate changes that might occur following application of solvents used in conservation treatments. -
