Acoustics and the Performance of Music - Manual for Acousticians, Audio Engineers, Musicians, Architects and Musical Instrument... Acoustics and the Performance of Music - Manual for Acousticians, Audio Engineers, Musicians, Architects and Musical Instrument Makers (Hardcover, 5th ed. 2009)
Jurgen Meyer; Translated by Uwe Hansen
R4,287 Discovery Miles 42 870 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The objective of the book is to focus insights in the field of Acoustics of Musical Instruments, Room-Acoustics and Psycho-Acoustics on applications in musical performance. In this context, the directional dependence of sound radiation by musical instruments and the voice, as well as questions of concert hall design and room acoustical computer simulations and seating arrangements within the orchestra, or the positioning of microphones is a central issue. The presentation dispenses with mathematical details and prefers conceptual explanations and pictorial representations in order to make the interpretation of acoustical processes accessible to musicians. In this context the pictorial representations of directional characteristics are of particular interest.

This translation corresponds to the latest (fifth) German edition (2004). Questions of orchestral arrangements have been revised. Since the first edition was published in 1978, this book has been completely revised and rewritten to include current research.

This book is based largely on the Author s own research as well as decades of teaching experience in the field of audio engineering (Tonmeister). Noteworthy are also orchestral demonstrations both as conductor and presenter."

Echocardiography has been one of the most significant advances in cardiology in the past two decades. It can provide anatomic, functional hemodynamic, and blood flow information. Conventional transtho- racic echocardiography has limitations, particularly in certain patients such as those with obesity, chronic lung disease, or chest wall defor- mity, or in those where a transthoracic approach is difficult for reasons including trauma, life support apparat uses, and surgical dressings. There are also certain disease states or conditions in which transtho- racic echocardiography expectedly gives incomplete or inadequate in- formation. Transesophageal echo cardiography has opened a unique "new window to the heart." The immediate proximity of the esophagus and the posterior heart permits exceptionally high resolution images, par- ticularly of the left atrium, mitral valve, and intraatrial septum. Addi- tionally, from the stomach (trans gastric views), the ventricles can be dependably imaged. Transesophageal echo cardiography presently is utilized in two environments: intraoperatively and for outpatient examinations. Intraoperatively, TEE is utilized to monitor cardiac function and de- tect intracardiac air or debris, to diagnose or quantitate cardiac path- ology, and to access operative results.

This classic reference on musical acoustics and performance practice begins with a brief introduction to the fundamentals of acoustics and the generation of musical sounds. It then discusses the particulars of the sounds made by all the standard instruments in a modern orchestra as well as the human voice, the way in which the sounds made by these instruments are dispersed and how the room into which they are projected affects the sounds.

R2,626 Discovery Miles 26 260 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book is on inertial confinement fusion, an alternative way to produce electrical power from hydogen fuel by using powerful lasers or particle beams. It involves the compression of tiny amounts (micrograms) of fuel to thousands times solid density and pressures otherwise existing only in the center of stars. Thanks to advances in laser technology, it is now possible to produce such extreme states of matter in the laboratory. Recent developments have boosted laser intensities again with new possibilities for laser particle accelerators, laser nuclear physics, and fast ignition of fusion targets. This is a reference book for those working on beam plasma physics, be it in the context of fundamental research or applications to fusion energy or novel ultrabright laser sources. The Physics of Inertial Fusion combines quite different areas of physics: beam target interaction, dense plasmas, hydrodynamic implosion and instabilities, radiative energy transfer as well as fusion reactions. Particular attention is given to simple and useful modelling, including dimensional analysis and similarity solutions. Both authors have worked in this field for more than 20 years. They want to address in particular those teaching this topic to students and all those interested in understanding the technical basis.
Now new in paperback.

This book is on inertial confinement fusion, an alternative way to produce electrical power from hydrogen fuel by using powerful lasers or particle beams. Two huge laser facilities are presently under construction to show that this method works. It involves the compression of tiny amounts (micrograms) of fuel to thousand times solid density and pressures otherwise existing only in the centre of stars. Thanks to advances in laser technology, it is now possible to produce such extreme states of matter in the laboratory. Recent developments have boosted laser intensities again with new possibilities for laser particle accelerators, laser nuclear physics, and fast ignition of fusion targets. This is a reference book for those working on beam plasma physics, be it in the context of fundamental research or applications to fusion energy or novel ultra-bright laser sources. The book combines quite different areas of physics: beam target interaction, dense plasmas, hydrodynamic implosion and instabilities, radiative energy transfer as well as fusion reactions. Particular attention is given to simple and useful modeling, including dimensional analysis and similarity solutions. Both authors have worked in this field for more than 20 years.

Die Beitrage des Buches "Fortschritte der Echokardiographie" basieren auf Vortra gen, die auf einem wissenschaftlichen Kongress im Februar 1985 in Mainz gehalten wurden. Der Kongress wurde dankenswerterweise durch die Arbeitsgemeinschaft Echokardiographie der Deutschen Gesellschaft fur Herz- und Kreislaufforschung unterstutzt. Zu den Hauptthemen - Funktionsdiagnostik des Herzens, Kontrastecho kardiographie, transosophageale Echokardiographie und Dopplerechokardiogra phie - wurden wissenschaftliche Beitrage geliefert. Im ersten Teil des Buches steht die Funktionsdiagnostik des linken Ventrikels im Vordergrund. Neue Ergebnisse der Computerverarbeitung von Echokardiogrammen werden vorgelegt. Vergleichende Studien zu szintigraphischen Methoden schliessen sich an. Einen breiten Raum nehmen Arbeiten zu Normalwerten sowohl fur das Kindes- als auch Erwachsenenalter ein. Die Normalwerte bilden die Grundlage zur Klassifikation erhobener ech kardiographischer Daten. Von allgemeinem Interesse ist sicherlich die Behandlung der Frage nach herzchirurgischen Eingriffen ohne vorherige Katheterdiagnostik, was fur die Zukunft von grosser Bedeutung sein durfte. Die Kontrastechokardiographie hat einen festen Platz in der Diagnostik der Trikuspi dalinsuffizienz und der Shuntdiagnostik bei angeborenen Vitien. Uber die Entwick lung eines neuen Kontrastmittels mit hoher Reproduzierbarkeit wird berichtet. Die Anwendung der Kontrastechokardiographie zur Analyse der Myokardperfusion und damit zur Infarktgrossenbestimmung im Tierexperiment wird dargelegt. Erste Erfah rungen mit dem neuen Echokontrastmittel in Phase 1 und 2 werden vorgestellt. Von klinischem Interesse ist die Abhandlung der Frage nach einem moglichen Ersatz der linksventrikularen Angiographie durch die Echoventrikulographie, z. B. bei beste hender Kontrastmittelallergie, schlechter linksventrikularer Funktion bei Klappen vitien, Patienten mit Niereninsuffizienz und bestehender Hyperthyreose. Ein "neues Fenster zum Herzen" eroffnet die transosophageale Echokardiographie."

Die Kalziumantagonisten haben in ihrer oralen Darreichungsform seit vielen Jahren einen festen Platz in der Behandlung der Angina pectoris und der Hypertonie. Fiir manche - vor allem klinische - In- dikationen ist dariiber hinaus eine parenterale Zubereitung sehr wiin- schenswert. Wahrend Verapamil seit langer Zeit in injizierbarer Form verfUgbar ist, hat die Zubereitung und vor allem Stabilisierung der loslichen Form des Nifedipin langere Zeit in Anspruch genommen. Der Sinn des Symposiums war es, die ersten Erfahrungen mit der intravenosen und auch der intrakoronaren Anwendung des Nifedipin im Rahmen einer kleinen Expertengruppe zu diskutieren. Da die Kalziumantagonisten unter Umstanden eine deutliche Beeinflussung der Erregungsreizbildung und -reizleitung mit sich bringen konnen, standen zunachst im Vortrag von T. Pop die elek- trophysiologischen Untersuchungen im Blickpunkt. 1m AnschluB daran wurden die hamodynamischen Veranderungen nach der Injek- tion von Nifedipin unter Ruhe sowie unter Belastungsbedingungen von G. Biamino dargestellt. Eine spezielle Indikation fUr injizierbares Nifedipin stellen koro- narchirurgische Eingriffe dar. Hier berichtete die Berliner Arbeits- gruppe (J. Tarnow, O. Schulte-Sasse) tiber ihre Erfahrungen. Bei der hypertrophisch-obstruktiven Kardiomyopathie gehOrt die orale Nife- dipingabe zu den etablierten TherapiemaBnahmen. In speziellen Fallen kann die intravenose Verabreichung, tiber die P. Schanzen- bacher berichtete, wegen des gut steuerbaren und schnell einsetzenden Wirkmechanismus von Bedeutung sein.
