A pattern that emerges when two grids are superimposed over one another, usually unintended and undesirable in many applications such as in weaving and screenprinting
In color process printing, the pattern which exists because of one screen angle overprinting another or several other screen angles Sometimes the moire pattern becomes objectionable because the screen angles are less than 30 degrees, creating an "interference effect " However, the yellow screen in process color is always less than 30 degree angle from other colors but since the yellow dots are virtually invisible to the eye these patterns are unseen
The effect obtained by pressing a ribbed material that appears as a moire with its wavy design, also able to produce various effects of the reflection of the light Synonyms: moire, wavy, amoerro (old)
Objectionable patterns that appear at regular frequencies when two or more screen patterns are placed over one another May be caused by misalignment, incorrect screen angles, slipping or slurring
Fibre: Silk, rayon, cotton Weave: Plain or crosswise rib Characteristics: Has a watermarked finish Fairly stiff with body in most cases It is produced by passing the fabric between engraved cylinders which press the design into the material, causing the crushed and uncrushed parts to reflect the light differently The pattern is not permanent, except on acetate rayon Uses: After 5 wear, formals, dresses and coats, draperies, bedspreads
An undesirable optical pattern that happens when two or more grid patterns overlap, such as the halftone dots produced by an angled screen A moirÈ pattern may also occur when a pattern in the artwork, such as a herringbone weave or window blinds, interferes with a halftone dot pattern Manipulating artwork when scanned or using stochastic screening may eliminate the moirÈ
An undesirable pattern created by the optical meshing of halftone dots when the halftone screens are superimposed in one another Moire patterns occur when the screen angles of a color separation are not set properly or when a printed halftone is scanned or rescreened
Originally, a fine textile fabric made of the hair of an Asiatic goat; afterwards, any textile fabric to which a watered appearance is given in the process of calendering
[in printing] an undesirable pattern caused by the improper use of halftone screen angles, or when a pattern within an image conflicts with proper halftone patterns
Undesirable pattern resulting when halftones and screen tints are made with improperly aligned screens, or when a pattern in a photo, such as a plaid, interfaces with a halftone dot pattern
an optical effect formed when one family of curves is superposed on another, the lines of the overlapping figures crossing at an ange less than about 45°; the moiré lines are then the locus of the points of intersection
