Let Jasmine Rain Down
Author: Kay Kaufman Shelemay
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226752112
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
When Jews left Aleppo, Syria, in the early twentieth century and established communities abroad, they carried with them a repertory of songs (pizmonim) with sacred Hebrew texts set to melodies borrowed from the popular Middle Eastern Arab musical tradition. Let Jasmine Rain Down tells the story of the pizmonim as they have continued to be composed, performed, and transformed through the present day; it is thus an innovative ethnography of an important Judeo-Arabic musical tradition and a probing contribution to studies of the link between collective memory and popular culture. Shelemay views the intersection of music, individual remembrances, and collective memory through the pizmonim. Reconstructing a century of pizmon history in America based on research in New York, Mexico, and Israel, she explains how verbal and musical memories are embedded in individual songs and how these songs perform both what has been remembered and what otherwise would have been forgotten. In confronting issues of identity and meaning in a postmodern world, Shelemay moves ethnomusicology into the domain of memory studies.

Dual Reciprocity Boundary Element Method
Author: P.W. Partridge
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401136904
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
The boundary element method (BEM) is now a well-established numerical technique which provides an efficient alternative to the prevailing finite difference and finite element methods for the solution of a wide range of engineering problems. The main advantage of the BEM is its unique ability to provide a complete problem solution in terms of boundary values only, with substantial savings in computer time and data preparation effort. An initial restriction of the BEM was that the fundamental solution to the original partial differential equation was required in order to obtain an equivalent boundary in tegral equation. Another was that non-homogeneous terms accounting for effects such as distributed loads were included in the formulation by means of domain integrals, thus making the technique lose the attraction of its "boundary-only" character. Many different approaches have been developed to overcome these problems. It is our opinion that the most successful so far is the dual reciprocity method (DRM), which is the subject matter of this book. The basic idea behind this approach is to employ a fundamental solution corresponding to a simpler equation and to treat the remaining terms, as well as other non-homogeneous terms in the original equation, through a procedure which involves a series expansion using global approximating functions and the application of reciprocity principles.

Shape Design Sensitivity Analysis and Optimization Using the Boundary Element Method
Author: Zhiye Zhao
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642843824
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 203
Book Description
This book investigates the various aspects of shape optimization of two dimensional continuum structures, including shape design sensitivity analysis, structural analysis using the boundary element method (BEM), and shape optimization implementation. The book begins by reviewing the developments of shape optimization, followed by the presentation of the mathematical programming methods for solving optimization problems. The basic theory of the BEM is presented which will be employed later on as the numerical tool to provide the structural responses and the shape design sensitivities. The key issue of shape optimization, the shape design sensitivity analy sis, is fully investigated. A general formulation of stress sensitivity using the continuum approach is presented. The difficulty of the modelling of the ad joint problem is studied, and two approaches are presented for the modelling of the adjoint problem. The first approach uses distributed loads to smooth the concentrated adjoint loads, and the second approach employs the singu larity subtraction method to remove the singular boundary displacements and tractions from the BEM equation. A novel finite difference based approach to shape design sensitivity is pre sented, which overcomes the two drawbacks of the conventional finite difference method. This approach has the advantage of being simple in concept, and eas ier implementation. A shape optimization program for two-dimensional continuum structures is developed, including structural analysis using the BEM, shape design sensitiv ity analysis, mathematical programming, and the design boundary modelling.

TWO DOMAIN HEAT TRANSFER STUDIES USING A COUPLED FINITE-DIFFERENCE AND BOUNDARY ELEMENT PROGRAMS
Author: Serap Dikmenli
Publisher: Serap Dikmenli
ISBN:
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 105
Book Description
An iterative coupling of a finite-difference boundary layer code "STAN5"[1] and a boundary element code "BEASY”[2] have been used to study two dimensional convective-conductive problems. The coupling method essentially leaves undisturbed the codes of these programs and uses their custom features in their applicable domains. The boundary layer program is used in the convective domain, while "BEASY” is used in the solid domain. Compatibility conditions are established between these domain solutions and an iterative scheme is used until these conditions are mutually satisfied. The indirect communication of compatibility (boundary) criteria between these programs was achieved by two editor/data-transferor like programs. Combined entire package controlled by systems dependent communication program. Numerical scheme used by boundary layer program incorporates a stepwise method. The method presents certain advantages, which makes it suitable for coupling with any other domain method such as the boundary element method. A number of applications have been studied to verify the results for each program as well as the coupling scheme. These include flows over Cylinder inclining surfaces, airfoil and wedge shaped models with internal regions subjected to convective or isothermal environments. The results of the conjugate coupling showed the following: 1) Total job-time reduction due to high convergence rate, and time required for the model preparation. 2) A data storage reduction. 3) A substantial collection of system characteristics. The result of iterative coupling scheme is a useful engineering tool that can be used to study conjugate system consisting of boundary layer and conductive domains of arbitrary shapes.

Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 221
Book Description
The application of BEM in all fields of engineering and science has progressed at an accelerate rate since the first book on the method appeared in the late seventies. In particular the advantages of BEM for potential problems are essential to solve a whole range of electrical engineering problems. Previous volumes in this series have focussed on the state of the art in other fields while this volume discusses only problems related to electrical engineering. The book reviews a series of important applications such as the design of semiconductor devices and their thermal analysis. The following two chapters concentrate on the study of galvanic corrosion and cathodic protection. Chapter 4 deals with the design of capacitance transducers. The next three chapters concentrate on the applications of the method to simulate electrochemical problems with special reference to Plating Process. The last chapter in the book discusses the case of inverse problems in electrical engineering and presents some applications including their use in tomography.
