The purpose of this study was to investigate the frequency modulations and the intensity modulations of the hand vibrato and the jaw vibrato as they relate to performance on selected brass instruments. Ten trumpet players and ten trombone players were recorded performing a musical exercise which was written in three different registers. Five performers in each group used a hand vibrato and five used a jaw vibrato.

abstract: Despite a quickly growing repertoire list for the brass quintet, the music of the early Argentine tango has remained relatively neglected by brass quintet arrangers and performers. With the goal of bringing a neglected art form to the brass quintet repertoire, three arrangements based on early twentieth century Argentine tango songs are presented here: "Elegante Papirusa" by Tito Roccatagliata, "A La Gran Muñeca" by Jesús Ventura, and "La Cotorrita" by Samuel Castriota. The arrangements follow the style of three early recordings produced by The Victor Talking Machine in 1920 and 1922, as performed by two authentic Argentine orquesta típicas: Orquesta Típica Select and Orquesta Típica Fresedo. A brief history of the style and instrumental evolution of tango music from its influences and origins up until 1920 is discussed, followed by a detailed account of the musicians and circumstances involved in the three early recordings. An explanation of the issues encountered by the author in adapting the early tango style to the brass quintet setting is discussed, along with the solutions realized in order to make the project successful and practical for a moderately advanced brass quintet. The full brass quintet scores are provided as part of the Appendix. / Dissertation/Thesis / D.M.A. Music 2011

Les nappes métalliques assurent la structure des pneumatiques. Leur fabrication se décline en plusieurs étapes : le dépôt électrolytique du laiton sur le substrat en acier perlitique, le tréfilage humide du renfort laitonné et l’assemblage mélange-renfort. La pondération de chaque étape sur les mécanismes de corrosion a été évaluée.La composition du revêtement laiton est le premier paramètre étudié. Des caractérisations de surface telles que MEB-EBSD et XPS ont été réalisées et contribuent à l’interprétation des résultats électrochimiques. Les essais électrochimiques ont été menés dans 0,01 M NaCl et couplés à des analyses de solution ICP-AES. Le comportement global du renfort immergé ainsi que le suivi de l’évolution de l’ORR et de la dissolution de l’acier laitonné ont été caractérisés par voltampérométrie linéaire ainsi que par spectroscopie d’impédance électrochimique sous polarisation. L’influence de la composition du revêtement sur le comportement en corrosion a été déterminée.Lors de l’étape de tréfilage, les déformations microstructurales générées ainsi que le lubrifiant ont été identifiés comme des paramètres influents à partir des caractérisations de surface MEB et desoutils électrochimiques (voltampérométrie linéaire et cyclique, SIE sous polarisation, étude des lubrifiants en solution).Dans l’assemblage, le mélange peut agir en tant que cathode. La nature des couplages galvaniques (renfort-mélange ou renfort-renfort) a été identifiée par des mesures ZRA en fonction des conditions de vieillissement. Il a également été montré que les espèces relarguées par le mélange influencent le comportement en corrosion du renfort. La cinétique de dégradation du composite a été évaluée par mesure de la force à la rupture du renfort. La synergie possible entre lubrifiant et mélange a été vérifiées. / The tire structure is provided by metal-rubber composites. Their manufacturing process is divided into several steps : electroplating of brass on steel wires, brass-coated steel wet wire drawing and rubber/wire mixing. The weight of each step on corrosion mechanisms was evaluated.The brass coating composition is the first parameter studied. Surface characterizations such as SEM-EBSD and XPS have been performed and contribute to the electrochemical resultats understanding. Electrochemical experiments were done in 0.01 M NaCl and coupled with ICP-AES measurements. Linear voltammetry as well as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy under polarization are used to characterize the overall behavior of the brass reinforcement and to follow the ORR and dissolution evolution. The coating composition influence on the corrosion behavior has been determined.During the wet wire drawing, microstructure mechanical deformations and lubricant were identified as influencing parameters by means of surface characterization and electrochemical tools (linear and cyclic voltammetry, EIS under polarization, study of lubricants in solution).In the composite, the rubber can act as cathode. The galvanic couplings (rubber-wire or wire-wire) have been identified by ZRA measurements under different aging conditions. The species released by the rubber have revealed an influence on the corrosion behavior. The composite degradation kinetic was evaluated by breaking force measurements. The possible synergy between lubricant and rubber has been verified.

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar o comportamento da chapa de latão 70/30 para o processo de Estampagem Incremental de Chapas (ISF - Incremental Sheet Forming), baseado nos parâmetros: ângulo de parede (ψ), passo vertical ( Z) e estratégia do caminho da ferramenta. Os experimentos baseiam-se na variante da Estampagem Incremental denominada Estampagem Incremental com Ponto Simples (SPIF - Single Point Incremental Forming). Foram realizados 18 ensaios usando uma ferramenta de estampar com raio (RT) de 5 mm. Para execução dos testes práticos, foram utilizados os recursos: softwares CAD/CAM, centro de usinagem CNC com três eixos, matriz incremental, ferramenta de estampagem incremental e um dispositivo prensa chapas. Além disso, o acabamento da superfície conformada foi medido através do parâmetro de rugosidade RZ nos principais ensaios, bem como a medição das deformações verdadeiras (j) e da espessura (s1). Os testes práticos demonstraram que a estratégia de usinagem espiral proporcionou um maior ângulo de parede, comparado à estratégia paralela de contorno. / This study aims to evaluate the behavior of 70/30 brass plate to the process of Incremental Sheet Forming - ISF, based on the parameters: wall angle (ψ), vertical step ( Z) and tool path strategy. The experiments were based on a variation of the ISF process, called SPIF (Single Point Incremental Forming). Eighteen tests were conducted using a punching tool with a radius (RT) of 5 mm. For the execution of practical tests, the resources were used: CAD / CAM software, CNC machining center with three axis. It was also used an incremental matrix, a tool for incremental forming and a sheet-press device. In addition, the surface finish was measured by RZ roughness parameter in the main tests, the same way the measurement of true strains (φ) and thickness (s1). The practice tests showed that the spiral machining strategy has provided a greater wall angle, compared to the parallel strategy contour.

The trumpet has always maintained a central role in the jazz genre. However, throughout the history of chamber music the trumpet was overlooked until the mid-twentieth century when brass chamber music and mixed chamber ensembles rose to popularity. An infiltration of the popular American style, jazz, into classical chamber music changed composers' treatment of the trumpet. This thesis focuses on the role and treatment of the trumpet in selected jazz-influenced classical chamber works in order to highlight that the trumpet's prominence in jazz helped to establish its place in twentieth-century chamber music. A brief history of classical brass chamber music and the origins and development of jazz is given. Trumpet performance techniques and compositional practices idiomatic to the different jazz style periods, ranging from ragtime to cool jazz, are given. These techniques are then traced through selected chamber music works of Stravinsky, Martinu, Schuller, Babbitt, and Wilson. Selected works were chosen based on the degree of jazz influence and are representations of the jazz style period they emulate. A comparison of how classical composers in Europe and the United States viewed the trumpet in jazz, in regards to chamber music, is detailed over the course of the twentieth century.

Este trabalho apresenta um estudo sobre o processo de Estampagem Incremental de Chapas, em Latão C-268 de diferentes espessuras (s0: 0.50, 0.70 e 1.00 mm), motivado pela inobservância de pesquisas desta matéria prima neste processo de conformação de chapas. Atualmente, este material tem grande aplicação na confecção de utensílios domésticos (baixelas, travessas, etc) e ferragens para construção civil (espelhos, cubas, etc), instrumentos musicais de sopro e núcleos de radiadores automotivos, tendo assim, um amplo campo de aplicação industrial, e potencial para as aplicações do processo de Estampagem Incremental de Chapas. A pesquisa está pautada na caracterização das matérias primas, para a obtenção de dados como as Curvas de Escoamento, Índices de Anisotropia (r), Curvas Limite de Conformação (CLC) e em experimentos de Estampagem Incremental de Chapas, realizados em uma máquina dedicada a este processo de conformação. Para a realização dos experimentos, foram utilizados Incrementos Verticais com diferentes valores (∆Z: 0.10, 0.50 e 1.00 mm), assim como duas ferramentas de estampagem (DT: Ø10 e Ø15 mm). Foram aplicadas duas formas geométricas diferentes: Tronco de Cone e Tronco de Pirâmide, ambos com perfil radial das paredes verticais. Ao todo, foram realizados 15 experimentos diferentes na modalidade SPIF. Os experimentos foram realizados em uma máquina dedicada ao processo, capaz da aquisição dos valores de Força (FX, FY e FZ) durante a realização dos testes. Com a realização dos experimentos SPIF, foi possível a elaboração da Linha Limite de Fratura – LFC da chapa latão C-268 nas três espessuras investigadas, onde os resultados apontam para valores maiores de deformação verdadeira (1 vs 2), quando comparados aos valores da CLC. Adicionalmente, a LFC das três espessuras de chapas analisadas, apontam os valores das maiores deformações verdadeiras (1) muito próximos, evidenciando neste caso que a diminuição do Incremento Vertical (∆Z) é mais relevante para a estampagem do que o aumento da espessura da chapa. As geometrias Tronco de Cone e Tronco de Pirâmide apresentaram discrepâncias geométricas toleráveis em relação ao perfil projetado, mas diferentes entre si, influenciados pelo retorno elástico diferente de cada geometria. Entretanto, suas fraturas apresentaram o mesmo comportamento, propagação no sentido meridional. Os experimentos SPIF realizados com a ferramenta de estampagem com Ø10mm proporcionaram as maiores profundidades. A medição da espessura final (s1) próximas as regiões fraturadas, comprovou os valores medidos não ultrapassaram os respectivos valores resultantes da expressão matemática Lei do Seno, e ainda, que quanto menor a espessura inicial (s0) da chapa, menor a variação dos valores medidos e calculados. A análise das Forças (FX, FY e FZ) resultantes do processo SPIF mostram que quanto maior o Incremento Vertical (∆Z), maior a espessura inicial (s0) da chapa, e maior do diâmetro (DT) da ferramenta de estampagem, maiores serão as Forças necessárias no SPIF. Adicionalmente, foi possível determinar os valores de Atrito (µ), obtidos em função das Forças (FX, FY e FZ) do processo SPIF. / This paper presents a study of the Incremental Sheet Forming process, in Brass C-268 of different thicknesses (s0: 0.50, 0.70 and 1.00 mm), motivated by non-observance of research of this raw material in this sheet forming process. Currently, this material has great application in the manufacture of household items (plates, platters, etc.) and hardware for building (locks, vats, etc.), wind musical instruments and automotive radiator cores, having thus, a large industrial application field, and potential for the applications of the Incremental Sheet Forming process. The research is based on the characterization of raw materials, to obtain data such as Flow Curves, Anisotropy Indices (r), Forming Limit Curve and in Incremental Sheet Forming experiments, performed on a machine dedicated to this forming process. For the realization of the experiments, Vertical Increments with different values were used (∆Z: 0.10, 0.50 e 1.00 mm), As well as two forming tools (DT: Ø10 e Ø15 mm). Two different geometric forms were applied: Cone Frustum and Pyramid Frustum, both with radial profile of vertical walls. In all, 15 different SPIF experiments were performed. The experiments were carried out in a machine dedicated to the process, able to acquire the values of Force (FX, FY e FZ) during the tests. With the realization of SPIF experiments, it was possible to elaborate the Fracture Forming Line – FFL of Brass C-268 sheet, In the three thicknesses investigated, Where the results indicate higher values of true strain (1 vs 2), when compared to the FLC values. Additionally, the FFL of the three sheet thicknesses analyzed, indicate the values of the highest true deformations (1) very close, evidencing in this case, that the decrease of Vertical Increment (∆Z) is more relevant for the forming than the increase in sheet thickness. The Cone Frustum and Pyramid Frustum geometries presented tolerable geometric discrepancies in relation to the projected profile, more different from each other, influenced by different springback of each geometry. However, their fractures presented the same behavior, meridional direction propagation. The SPIF experiments performed with the forming tool with Ø10mm provided the greatest depths. The final thickness (s1) measurement near the fractured regions, proved the measured values did not exceed the respective values resulting from the mathematical expression Sine Law, and also, that the lower the initial thickness (s0) of sheet, lower the variation of the measured and calculated values. Analysis of Forces (FX, FY e FZ) resulting from the SPIF process, show that the larger the Vertical Increment (∆Z), larger the initial thickness (s0) of the sheet, and larger diameter (DT) of the forming tool, larger will be the necessary forces in SPIF. In addition, it was possible to determine the values of Friction (µ), obtained in function of the SPIF Forces (FX, FY e FZ).

Para fins comparativos foram depositados filmes com diferentes parâmetros (tempo de deposição e potencial no substrato), gerando revestimentos com diferentes características (espessuras, densidade, porosidade e tensão no filme). Investigou-se o comportamento das amostras de latão e seus revestimentos em ensaios eletroquímicos, que consistem em polarizar os corpos de prova imersos numa solução de NaCl 3,5%, para avaliar a resistência à corrosão das amostras. Os resultados obtidos mostram que todos os filmes de INCONEL 600 melhoram a resistência à corrosão do Latão, sendo mais eficientes os filmes com maior tempo de deposição e maior potencial (em módulo) aplicado no substrato.
