Bach’s stay in Weimar was characterized by his keyboard and orchestral works. He learned to write dramatic openings and employ the dynamic motor rhythms and harmonic schemes found in the music of the Italians. This is a direct influence to the progressive type of music that Beethoven is so well known for. Though his stay in Weimar was influential, it was also short lived. In 1717 he moved to secure a job at Cothen. After the move, it didn’t take long for Bach’s life to be changed forever. In…

Introduction As the threats of climate change have increased, so has research on alternative energy. Alternative energy differs from classic fuel sources (i.e. coal, shale, natural gas) because it uses natural resources that has the ability to be consistently replaced; thus it is also termed “renewable energy.” “Biofuels” are a specific class of renewable energy that refers to biomass (versus other natural resources like sunlight) or harvested metabolites from living organisms that can be…

Introduction Parasitic helminth infections are an important burden to global public health, causing great morbidity in humans and livestock. Estimates claim that up to a quarter of the world´s population is affected by soil-transmitted helminths (1), although the incidences are mainly restricted to developing countries, due to poor sanitation resources and health care. Considering these facilities are relatively modern, it is likely that until the 19th century all human beings were infected…

Tchaikovsky Hamad Alrashed Fall 2016Tchaikovsky Hamad Alrashed introduction Tchaikovsky an always associated composer with the Moscow school according to his teaching position , as well as using Russian harmonies , and melodies as much as the mighty five do. The turning point of view between Tchaikovsky and the five by his philosophical point of that he is akin more to western ideas. Tchaikovsky bridges the gap between the two schools, for example tonality in his thematic presentation…

Alzheimer’s Disease is one of many forms of dementia, and is the most common form (Orimaye 1). What Alzheimer’s Disease does to a person is that they start to have progressive cognitive decline like losing memory and degeneration of reasoning ability (Cai 1). To be diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease, a person has to go through extensive neurophysical examinations by using a lot of cognitive tests that have a series of questions and images. There is a maximum score of thirty for the test, and if…

1. ABSTRACT The essence of an image is a projection from a 3D scene onto a 2D plane, during which the depth information is lost. The 3D point corresponding to a specific image point is constrained to be on the line of sight. From a single image, it is very difficult to determine the depth information of various object points in an image. If two or more 2D images are used, then the relative depth point of the image points can be calculated which can be further used to reconstruct the 3D image by…

The ability to record great vocal tracks in the studio is a benchmark skill for any recording engineer who wants to be taken seriously. These are the tracks that are going to show your clients if you really are the savvy studio guru that those “me at the sound board looking smart” pictures portray you as. Just as the vocal track is exposed and nearly naked, so will you be. So read on, and master each of these essential vocal recording concepts. How to fine-tune a singer Great vocal recordings…

The ability to express and perceive emotion serves an important role for human functioning in everyday environments. It can, for example, allow us to detect danger or respond to a person in need. A full understanding of how emotion influences behaviour has yet to be realized. Recent literature has demonstrated that exposure to emotionally arousing stimuli can alter the perceptual mechanisms of participants. The present experiments attempted to expand this research to examine cross-modal vision…

Chapter 5 Hybridization of Wind With Solar Using Cuk and Sepic Converters This chapter presents a hybrid model of solar and wind energy. This gives the hybridization of wind with solar using the CUK and SEPIC converters. In this model the solar PV panel source is connected to the CUK converter and correspondingly the wind turbine source is given to the SEPIC converter. Solar energy and wind energy are the two renewable energy sources most common in use. Hybridizing solar and wind power sources…
