The Orientalizing Period took place between the Geometric Period and the Archaic Period though stylistically is relatively unimportant and is largely absorbed by…

Simultaneous Optimization of Arithmetic Average Roughness (Ra), Geometric Average Roughness (Rq) and Ten Point Height Average Roughness (Rz) Using TOPSIS The present work is to explore the effect of EDM process parameters on the surface roughness characteristics Ra, Rq and Rz. For the experimentation, twenty seven alternatives of EDM process parameters, Pulse on time (TON), Pulse off time (TOFF), Wire Tension (WT) and Wire Feed (WF) were considered as per the Taguchi’s standard L27 Orthogonal…

Procedure An ABAB withdrawal design with one participant was utilized to evaluate to evaluate the effects of the token economy. Parents were interviewed in the home to gain information pertaining to Nic’s behavior in home and at school as well as to identify target behaviors and secondary reinforcers.

There are different geometric shapes in this piece. The piece had simple geometric shapes, such as spheres, cones, rectangle and cylinders. The pieces looks focal due to the use of so many distinct geometric shapes and colors within it. The use of lines, colors, and shapes within this piece is what really appealed to me. In this painting, the use of lines played a vital role in the positioning of the man and woman within the piece. There were colors like gray, brown, black and mustard within the…
