Twist carpets (also known as frieze and California Berber) the cables (fibers twisted together like a piece of rope) are twisted tighter then most textured carpets. The twisted cables often curl. It is a more informal look and is a very durable choice. Textured carpets are denser and can be more formal. The cables are cut at a different angle at the tips so it can often look as though its multi colored although really its just how the light is reflecting off it. This carpet is also generally durable, but can be more prone to showing traffic patterns. I strongly believe when buying carpet, if this is going into a main room and will be trafficked a lot, you want to buy a nylon carpet. It is very hard to tell the difference between nylon and polyester, but you will have a much longer life out of one made with nylon.

Whats the difference between nails and screws?
Screws are threaded to twist in when turned with a screwdriver. Nails are smooth to slide in straight when pounded with a hammer.
What is the difference between shear center flexural center center of twist and elastic center?
The elastic center that point of a beam in the plane of the section lying midway between the flexural/shear center and the center of twist in that section. The flexural center and the shear center are the same thing. It is that point through which the loads must act if there is to be no twisting, or torsion. The shear center is always located on the axis of symmetry; therefore, if a member has two axes of symmetry, the shear centre will be the intersection of the two axes. Channels have a shear center that is not located on the member. The center of twist is the point about which the section rotates when subjected to torsion. If the object is homogeneous and symmetrical in both directions of the cross-section then they are all equivalent and are located at the beam centroid.
