Master the fundamentals of spectral analysis for wave propagation: Fourier transforms, wavenumber-dispersion relations, phase vs. group velocity, and evanescent modes—essential concepts for Structural Health Monitoring.
A step-by-step guide to migrate Git repositories between platforms like GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket while preserving all commit history, branches, and tags using bare clone.
This post provides a comprehensive walkthrough on how to enhance the export resolution of PowerPoint slides from the default 96 DPI to a professional standard of up to 1000 DPI. By adjusting system registry settings, users can achieve higher quality images suitable for academic publications. The article includes detailed steps for modifying registry values, exporting slides in various image formats, and understanding limitations based on different PowerPoint versions.
This post explores the concept of color spaces in photography, explaining their importance in ensuring consistent and accurate color reproduction across various devices. It discusses the differences between popular color spaces like Adobe RGB and sRGB, and provides guidance on choosing the right color space based on the intended use of photographs. The article also covers color management in software like Lightroom Classic and the implications of color space selection for different file formats such as RAW, JPEG, and TIFF.
Digital photographers often face pixel defects that can affect image quality. This post explores three main types of pixel defects: dead pixels, stuck pixels, and hot pixels. By understanding their characteristics, causes, and methods for identification, photographers can better manage and prevent these issues, ultimately enhancing their photography experience.
