  2. Oren–Nayar reflectance model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oren–Nayar_reflectance_model

    This model for diffuse reflection was proposed by Johann Heinrich Lambert in 1760 and has been perhaps the most widely used reflectance model in computer vision and graphics. For a large number of real-world surfaces, such as concrete, plaster, sand, etc., however, the Lambertian model is an inadequate approximation of the diffuse component.

  3. Reflective surfaces (climate engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflective_surfaces...

    The average daily summertime temperature of the black roof surface was 75 °C (167 °F), but once retrofitted with a white reflective surface, it measured 52 °C (126 °F). Without considering any tax benefits or other utility charges, annual energy expenditures were reduced by $7,200 or $0.07/square foot.(This figure is for energy charges as ...

  4. Permeable paving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeable_paving

    Permeable pavement surfaces may be composed of; pervious concrete, porous asphalt, paving stones, or interlocking pavers. [1] Unlike traditional impervious paving materials such as concrete and asphalt, permeable paving systems allow stormwater to percolate and infiltrate through the pavement and into the aggregate layers and/or soil below. In ...

  5. Radiant barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiant_barrier

    Reflective bubble/foil insulations are primarily radiant barriers, and reflective insulation systems work by reducing radiant heat gain. To be effective, the reflective surface must face an air space; also, dust accumulation on the reflective surface will reduce its reflective capability.

  6. Want a Patio? Try Stamped Concrete as a Low-Cost Alternative

    www.aol.com/news/2013-04-10-stamped-concrete...

    A stamped concrete patio is simply a concrete slab with a textured, embossed surface. The contractor: - Pours and smooths the slab. - Presses a pattern into the surface while the concrete is still ...

  7. Lambertian reflectance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambertian_reflectance

    Diagram of Lambertian diffuse reflection. The black arrow shows incident radiance, and the red arrows show the reflected radiant intensity in each direction. When viewed from various angles, the reflected radiant intensity and the apparent area of the surface both vary with the cosine of the viewing angle, so the reflected radiance (intensity per unit area) is the same from all viewing angles.
