—The synthesis of sound based on physical models of 2-D percussion instruments is problematic and has been approached only infrequently in the literature. Beyond the computationa...
—This paper presents a set of novel physical models for sound synthesis of membrane percussion instruments. First, a model for tension modulation in a struck circular membrane is...
—The nonlinear vibration behavior of a multi-walled carbon nanotube is investigated based on an elastic multi-layer shell model with van der Waals interaction taken into consider...
—This paper presents a real-time piano synthesizer where both the transverse and longitudinal motion of the string is modeled by modal synthesis, resulting in a coherent and high...
In this paper, a rigorous MILP formulation for grass-root design of heat exchanger networks is developed. The methodology does not rely on traditional supertargeting followed by n...
