The battle began on 15 July, when 23 German divisions of the First and Third armies — led by Bruno von Mudra and Karl von Einem — assaulted the French Fourth Army under Henri Gouraud east of Reims ( the Fourth Battle of Champagne ()).

General Gouraud was appointed High Commissioner of the Syrian territories and Commander-in-Chief of French forces there.

Henri Gouraud ( born 1944 ) is a French computer scientist.

French High Commissioner for Syria, General Henri Gouraud adopted the new flag of the French Mandate of Syria on 24 July 1920.

The French High Commissioner Henri Gouraud presented Faisal with an ultimatum, demanding the surrender of Aleppo to the French Army, the dismantling of the Syrian Army, the adaptation of the French franc in Syria, and the dissolution of the Atassi Government.

Shahbandar's efforts to compromise with Gouraud proved futile, and Atassi's cabinet was dissolved on July 24, 1920, when the French defeated the Syrian Army at the Battle of Maysalun and imposed their mandate over Syria.

On September 1, 1920, General Gouraud proclaimed the establishment of the State of Greater Lebanon ( French: État du Grand Liban ) ( Arabic: دولة لبنان الكبير ).

* Henri Gouraud ( French Army officer ) ( 1867 – 1946 )

Henri Joseph Eugène Gouraud ( 17 November 1867, Paris – 16 September 1946 ) was a French general, best known for his leadership of the French Fourth Army at the end of the World War I.

The Gouraud family originally came from Vendée, but had left during the French Revolution for Angers, then Paris.

Henri Gouraud was assigned in 1894 to French Sudan.

Thanks to the patronage of the " parti colonial ", Henri Gouraud pursued a career across French Africa for the next fifteen years, with postings in Niger, Chad and Mauritania.

After the war, Gouraud served from 1919 to 1923 as representative of the French Government in the Middle East and commander of the French Army of the Levant.

Following the implementation of the 1916 Sykes-Picot Agreement, which divided the occupied remnants of the Ottoman Empire between France and Britain, Gouraud was commander of forces sent to enforce the French division of the Levant.

The Spanish army at El Aaiún, in conjunction with French forces from Fort Gouraud, struck the Moroccans on February 21, destroying Saharan Liberation Army concentrations between Bir Nazaran and Ausert.

The French forces under then-colonel Gouraud pushed forward in the French Sudan, and Ma al -' Aynayn was forced to retreated to Tiznit ( Morocco ) in 1908-1909 determined to fight along Abdelhafid in dethroning his brother, which they succeeded in doing.

Gouraud shading is considered superior to flat shading, which requires significantly less processing than Phong shading, but usually results in a faceted look.

TIE Fighter graphics engine, which uses texture mapping instead of Gouraud shading.

Unlike Gouraud shading, which interpolates colors across polygons, in Phong shading a normal vector is linearly interpolated across the surface of the polygon from the polygon's vertex normals.

Following the San Remo conference and the defeat of King Faisal's short-lived monarchy in Syria at the Battle of Maysalun, the French general Henri Gouraud, in breach of the conditions of the mandate, subdivided the French Mandate of Syria into six states.

In practice, Gouraud shading is most often used to achieve continuous lighting on triangle surfaces by computing the lighting at the corners of each triangle and linearly interpolating the resulting colours for each pixel covered by the triangle.

Gouraud shading works as follows: An estimate to the surface normal of each vertex in a polygonal 3D model is either specified for each vertex or found by averaging the surface normals of the polygons that meet at each vertex.

However, highly localized lighting effects ( such as specular highlights, e. g. the glint of reflected light on the surface of an apple ) will not be rendered correctly, and if a highlight lies in the middle of a polygon, but does not spread to the polygon's vertex, it will not be apparent in a Gouraud rendering ; conversely, if a highlight occurs at the vertex of a polygon, it will be rendered correctly at this vertex ( as this is where the lighting model is applied ), but will be spread unnaturally across all neighboring polygons via the interpolation method.

Phong shading is more computationally expensive than Gouraud shading since the reflection model must be computed at each pixel instead of at each vertex.

They manufactured the balloons at Hove, Sussex, in premises above the acoustic laboratory run by a third brother, Horace Short ( 2 July 1872 – 6 April 1917 ), for Thomas Edison's European agent, Col. Gouraud.

Gouraud was educated at home and at the Collège Stanislas de Paris.

Gouraud respected his father's wish and was instead posted to the 21st Foot Chasseur Regiment at Montbéliard.

The capture of Samori made Henri Gouraud a celebrated figure in France, at the same time as nationalists were recovering from the setback against the British at Fashoda.

This game runs at 60 frames per second with Gouraud shading utilised on the car models, as seen in R4.

Graphically, the game features Gouraud shaded and higher-resolution character models compared to Tobal No. 1, but still runs at 60 frames per second.

Thomas Edison's European agent, Colonel Gouraud, recorded Gladstone's voice several times on phonograph.

Since these specular highlights are absent from the polygon's vertices and Gouraud shading interpolates based on the vertex colors, the specular highlight will be missing from the polygon's interior.

It is capable of rendering several hundreds of simple 3D objects on a 386-33 with a minimum of two megabytes of RAM, and utilizes Gouraud shading for the airplanes.

Signifying the determination of France on its intervention in Syria was the naming of General Henri Gouraud as a high commissioner in Syria-Cilicia.

id Tech 4, first used for Doom 3 ( 2004 ), used an entirely dynamic per-pixel lighting, whereas previously, 3D engines had relied primarily on pre-calculated per-vertex lighting or lightmaps and Gouraud shading.

Henri Gouraud was born on Rue de Grenelle in Paris on 17 November 1867 to Doctor Xavier Gouraud and Mary Portal, the first of six children.

* A massive Cedar tree near the town of Ifrane in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco was named for the General ; the Gouraud Cedar is considered to be over 800 years old, and was " discovered " by Gouraud's troops during the French campaign against anti-colonial resistance on the Timahdite Plateau in the years 1917-19.

Before lightmaps were invented, realtime applications relied purely on Gouraud shading to interpolate vertex lighting for surfaces.

Lightmaps can also be calculated in real-time for good quality colored lighting effects that are not prone to the defects of Gouraud shading, although shadow creation must still be done using another method such as stencil shadow volumes or shadow mapping, as real-time ray-tracing is still too slow to perform on modern hardware in most 3D engines.

George Edward Gouraud recorded him on behalf of Thomas Edison on the evening of 5 October 1888.

The character models are lit and shaded using Gouraud shading while the levels ( stored in the BSP format ) are lit either with lightmaps or Gouraud shading depending on the user's preference.

This iteration was one of the first games on the PlayStation to feature Gouraud shading on the polygons, giving the game a visual depth that was previously missing.
