Wettability, Tribology, Degradation, and Topography of Laser-Textured Surfaces of Biopolymers [PDF]
MicromachinesSurface texturing involves creating micro-channels, micro-dimples, micro-grooving, and other surface modifications. To do this, laser and micromachining are employed on the substrate surface in addition to other methods.

Pattern-based texturing revisited [PDF]
Proceedings of the 26th annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques - SIGGRAPH '99, 1999 This paper presents a method for texturing any surface using texture samples while avoiding distortion, discontinuity and repetitiveness. The principle consists in replacing global parameterization of the surface by a serie of local parameterization, and reporting the continuity constraints to the content.
