Ashik2 is the anisotropic reflectance model by Ashikhmin & Shirley. |
| 628 |
+ |
The string arguments are the same as for plastic2, but the real |
| 629 |
+ |
arguments have additional flexibility to specify the specular color. |
| 630 |
+ |
Also, rather than roughness, specular power is used, which has no |
| 631 |
+ |
physical meaning other than larger numbers are equivalent to a smoother |
| 632 |
+ |
surface. |

The first string argument is a "thickness" parameter that is useful |
| 901 |
< |
for hiding detail geometry for transmitting systems, e.g., |
| 902 |
< |
complex fenestration. |
| 903 |
< |
If a view or shadow ray hits a BSDF surface with non-zero specular transmission |
| 890 |
< |
and positive thickness, the ray will pass directly through with no |
| 891 |
< |
reflection or transmission due to the BSDF. |

| 904 |
|
Similar to the illum type, this permits direct viewing and |
| 905 |
|
shadow testing of complex geometry. |
| 906 |
< |
In contrast, a scattered ray will use the BSDF transmission, |
| 907 |
< |
offsetting transmitted sample rays by the thickness amount |
| 908 |
< |
to avoid any intervening geometry. |
| 909 |
< |
In this manner, BSDF surfaces may act as simplified stand-ins for detailed |
| 910 |
< |
system geometry, which may still be present and visible in the simulation. |
| 911 |
< |
If the BSDF has back-side reflection data, a parallel surface should be |
| 912 |
< |
specified slightly less than the given thickness away from the front surface |
| 913 |
< |
to enclose the system geometry on both sides. |
| 914 |
< |
A zero thickness implies that the BSDF geomtery is all there is, and |
| 915 |
< |
thickness is ignored if there is no transmitted component, or transmission is |
| 916 |
< |
purely diffuse. |
| 906 |
> |
The BSDF is used when a scattered (indirect) ray hits the surface, |
| 907 |
> |
and any transmitted sample rays will be offset by the thickness amount |
| 908 |
> |
to avoid the hidden geometry and gather samples from the other side. |
| 909 |
> |
In this manner, BSDF surfaces can improve the results for indirect |
| 910 |

scattering from complex systems without sacrificing appearance or |
| 911 |
> |
shadow accuracy. |

The sign of the thickness is important, as it indicates whether the |
| 917 |
> |
proxied geometry is behind the BSDF surface (when thickness is positive) |
| 918 |
> |
or in front (when thickness is negative). |

The second string argument is the name of the BSDF file, which is |
| 921 |
|
found in the usual auxiliary locations. |
| 961 |
|
The first modifier will also be used to shade the area leaving the |
| 962 |
|
antimatter volume and entering the regular volume. |
| 963 |
|
If mod1 is void, the antimatter volume is completely invisible. |
| 964 |
< |
Antimatter does not work properly with the material type "trans", |
| 965 |
< |
and multiple antimatter surfaces should be disjoint. |
| 964 |
> |
If shading is desired at antimatter surfaces, it is important |
| 965 |
> |
that the related volumes are closed with outward-facing normals. |
| 966 |
> |
Antimatter surfaces should not intersect with other antimatter boundaries, |
| 967 |
> |
and it is unwise to use the same modifier in nested antimatter volumes. |
| 968 |
|
The viewpoint must be outside all volumes concerned for a correct |
| 969 |
|
rendering. |
