Portraits - Science topic
Works consisting of graphic representations, especially of the face, of real persons, usually posed, living or dead. They are pictures whose purpose is the portrayal of an individual or group of individuals, not pictures which merely include people as part of an event or scene. (From Thesaurus for Graphic Materials II, p540, 1995)
Questions related to Portraits
I need the software I described
Durër was right-hand but in his selfportrait (1498), we can see the painter's eye painting himself, the same in Portrait of a dame, from left-hand Vicente Carpaccio (1498), that shares with La Joconde the same very modern expression, so little "feminine" and that same imperceptible smile of the painter playing a good trick to the viewer .
My interactive media art installations generate various kinds of portraits from visitors (algorithmic, generative, combinatory) and I'm looking to frame that practice in a broader context. This means I'm interested in portraiture in general but also, more specifically, in portraiture as present in media and interactive arts.
Please give a name of book or article that portrait clear discussion about research data presentation..
Hello!
I'm currently studying the influence of adding a mass in a cantilever tip, near to a bifurcation.
In order to do it, I simplified a model of the cantilever to a 1DOF mass(m)-spring(k)-damper(b) system, where there is a stiffness linear and nonlinear (koX + k1X^3) so the system can be descrived as a Duffing like behavior ( for large amplitudes).
I wrote the equation of motion of the system as in the Image I annexed and then I made it nondimensional.
Now I wrote the differential equations (velocity, position) just to look at the phase portrait and the poincaré mapping. (For analyse the reponse frequency I have to apply Method of multiple scales and obtain amplitude and phase but for now just want to analyse the system before it).
In order to analyse the phase portrait, etc. I used a matlab program made by Housam Binous, for forced Duffing systems and I tried to adapt to my case ( Basically instead of Force*cos(Wt) and used the electrostatic force as described in the image) but I am not getting the results I expected in the plots, they are very strange).
Could you help me solving this challenge? I'm struggling with it, but It should be simple .
I annexed the matlab files and the image.
Thank you very much !
Kind Regards,

In his play (Endgame 1957), Samuel Beckett tries to portrait the human being's condition as the game of chess.
While writing a paper about Hans Holbein the younger's Lais from Corinth, I noticed that Vera Mamerow, who wrote extensively about this theme in 2006, made a comparison between italian courtesan portraits and german prints and paintings, which typically portraits a prostitute (NOT a courtesan). My questions are:
- If courtesans ever exists in German speaking courts in the 16th century.
- And if they did, why no one portrayed them, OR why are the portrayal of such subjects very rare.
Dear Sirs/Madams
I have a question:
If we have a 4*4 linearized system, how we can be sure of its stability or unstability based on its phase portraite? in this system how we can plot its phase portraite in essence?
and my another question is that in the paper that I attach, how the author linearized the nonlinear equations and reach those A?
Thank you
Diversity is a given fact. Thus, how we view it as productive difficulty is the question. Generally speaking, and from your own inter religious context, how can the study of the synoptic gospels with their presentation of various portraits of Jesus Christ inform how we do inter religious dialogues? B. how does it affect how you engage with others of various religious affiliations? C. Does differences hinder or help dialogue? D. What are some lessons to be learn in multiplicity?
The painting is made up of a group of portraits, depicting the People's Army of Captain Frank Bing Coco and Lieutenant William van Ritterberg (located in the center).
Winkler studied Husvikleifur in Northwestern Iceland. The outcrop contains plant fossils and coal; not quite common in Iceland. I would like to illustrate the article with a portrait of Winkler.
Hello everyone, I have difficulties in presenting images in psychology experiment through PTB, Matlab. I know how to present them, but I need to display them in the following way.
In my experiment, I want to show some face images. The raw materials are all portraits with hairs, ears, and neck in rectangular shape. However, I want to chop the pictures in a constant way, only remain the face areas in oval shape.
I have too many pictures so do them individually might not be feasible. So I want to modify the codes in PTB, and then I can easily present these pictures in oval shape constantly and equally.
In the other words, I want to show a lot of pictures in an oval shape frame (via Matlab), if it is not possible I would choose the alternative option (crop them).
Could anyone offer some suggestions?
Cheers
I'm putting together a PhD proposal looking at portraiture in poetry since modernism, and am interested to learn more about contemporary poets writing poetry in this vein.
We are interested in locating scientific papers related to mortuary photographs or postmortems, approached from the perspective of the history of childhood.
An example of this type of work can be found in:
BORRAS LLOP, J. Mª. Fotografía/monumento. Historia de la infancia y retratos post-mortem, Hispania, Vol 70, 234 (2010):101-136.
Sara, in addition to the photographic records, in Guanajuato there is a museum where mummies from the local cemetery are exhibited, mostly from around the same period as the post-mortem photographs. There are some "angelitos" in the collection.
Here is a web site with more information:
And here is an article that mentions the "angelitos" and their connection to the photographs:
Some infants were buried with little brooms with which, according to local tradition, were to be used by the "angelitos" to sweep the clouds in heaven.
Attached is a recent photo (from http://www.momiasdeguanajuato.gob.mx/img/8.jpg).
I want to document the red hair gene using photography as a visual reference. Can anyone help with information on genetics, rarity and global distribution of this gene?
I would like to make several large portraits prints (1mx1m) for the lab of Newton, Fourier, Michelson, Rayleigh and some other famous scientists. Can you advise any web source or a hard copy book, with such images of high quality? May be you came across printed portraits already available online?
