Affective response to tunes synthesized with musical pitch curves
2021 43rd Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine & Biology Society (EMBC), 2021Tunes perceived as happy may help a user reach an affective state of positive valence. However, a user with negative valence may not be ready to listen to such a tune immediately. In this paper, we consider nudging a user from their current affective state to a target affective state in small steps.

Designing Multispeed Gear Pitch Curves
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014As special mechanical systems within transmissions of unconventional motions, noncircular gears still offer multiple research opportunities due to their various geometries and kinematics characteristics. Investigation on noncircular gears highlights the lack of information on gears with combination of constant and variable speed, also named multispeed ...

Generation of Identical Noncircular Pitch Curves
Journal of Mechanical Design, 1998In this paper the theory and algorithm for generating pairs of identical noncircular conjugate pitch curves are presented. A set of criteria for two identical rigid bodies engaging in conjugate rolling motion is established. Based on these criteria, an algorithm is developed, which can be used to design this type of rolling pairs with almost unlimited ...

Generalization of Multispeed Gear Pitch Curves Design
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014Defined by various geometries and kinematics characteristics, noncircular gears represent special mechanical systems able to produce nonuniform motion of the driven element. Multispeed gears are a less investigated category of noncircular gears, used to combine constant and variable speed, recommended for industrial applications that require uniform ...

Algorithms for Noncircular Gear Pitch Curves Generation
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014The paper resumes the traditional hypotheses for the noncircular mating centrodes design, based on the definition of i) the driving centrode geometry ii) the transmission ratio variation and iii) the rotational motion of the driven centrode. Each procedure is transferred within the gear theory and developed considering both specific gear data, such as ...

Planetary and Space Science, 1995
Abstract QCC (Quenched Carbonaceous Composite) is an amorphous carbonaceous material formed from a hydrocarbon plasma. In a previous paper (Sakata et al., Astrophys. J.430, 311–316, 1994), we have studied two forms of QCC: a dark QCC component located near the plasmic beam and a thermally-altered filmy QCC.

Data-driven measurement of precision of components of pitch curves in Carnatic music
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2020Carnatic music (CM) is characterized by continuous pitch variations called gamakas, which are learned by example. Precision is measured on the points of zero-slope in gamaka- and non-gamaka-segments of the pitch curve as the standard deviation (SD) of the error in their pitch with respect to targets.

On the Generation of Analytical Noncircular Multilobe Internal Pitch Curves
Journal of Mechanical Design, 2008Abstract A method for the design of general analytical noncircular multilobe internal pitch curves is presented. The method is based on a reshaping algorithm. A selected monotonic function can be assigned as the initial profile for the outer rotor of the designed pitch curve.

Lift-curve characteristics for an airfoil pitching at constant rate
Journal of Aircraft, 1987This paper reports the results of wind-tunnel studies of dynamic stall for an NACA 0015 airfoil pitching about the midchord at a constant rate. Time-varying pressure readings from 16 locations on the airfoil were collected and used to determine the lift, pressure-drag, and moment coefficients as functions of angle of attack for 100 test cases, covering
