A Formal Model of Extended Tonal Harmony
Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Fabian Claude Moss
Extended tonality is a central system that characterizes the music from the 19th up to the 21st century, including styles like popular music, film music or Jazz. Developing from classical major-minor tonality, the harmonic language of extended tonality for ...
2021The pleasantness of sensory dissonance is mediated by musical style and expertise
Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Fabian Claude Moss, Markus Franz Josef Neuwirth, Tudor Popescu
Western musical styles use a large variety of chords and vertical sonorities. Based on objective acoustical properties, chords can be situated on a dissonant-consonant continuum. While this might to some extent converge with the unpleasant-pleasant continu ...
2019Transitions of Tonality: A Model-Based Corpus Study
Tonality has been the cornerstone of Western music-theoretical discourse for centuries. This study addresses the subject, using traditional music analysis, data-driven corpus methods, and computational models, concentrating on historical changes of tonalit ...
EPFL2019Electron Spin Resonance detectors from 400 MHz to 360 GHz
Methods based on the electron spin resonance (ESR) phenomenon are non-invasive tools adopted to investigate paramagnetic systems at temperatures ranging from above 1000 K to below 1 K. Since 2008, the group of Dr. Boero has been working on a detection tech ...
EPFL2019Assessment of a metamaterial-inspired active acoustic liner concept for application to aircraft engine noise reduction
Hervé Lissek, Romain Boulandet, Sami Driss Karkar, Gaël Matten
Acoustic liners are a widespread solution for noise mitigation at aircraft engine level, thanks to lightweight and relatively small dimensions for integration within nacelles. Although conventional liners might be designed to target multiple tonal frequenc ...
2017Fourier modeling of the BOLD response to a breath-hold task: Optimization and reproducibility
João Pedro Forjaco Jorge, Patricia Figueiredo, Inês Nunes de Sousa
Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) reflects the capacity of blood vessels to adjust their caliber in order to maintain a steady supply of brain perfusion, and it may provide a sensitive disease biomarker. Measurement of the blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD ...
Elsevier2016Theories of Experimentally Observed Excitation Spectra of Square Lattice Antiferromagnets
The first part of this thesis presents the theoretical study of an anomaly of unknown origin in the excitation spectrum of the Quantumspin-1/2 Heisenberg Square lattice Anti-Ferromagnet. The anomaly manifests itself in Inelastic Neutron Scattering data for ...
EPFL2014An Implementation of a Spike-Response Model with Escape Noise Using an Avalanche Diode
This paper introduces a novel probabilistic spike-response model through the combination of avalanche diode-generated Poisson distributed noise, and a standard exponential decay-based spike-response curve. The noise source, which is derived from a 0.35- m ...
2011Hydro-mechanical coupling in the periodontal ligament: A porohyperelastic finite element model
Matteo Galli, Joël Cugnoni, Marzio Bergomi
Harmonic tension–compression tests at 0.1, 0.5 and 1 Hz on hydrated bovine periodontal ligament (PDL) were numerically simulated. The process was modeled by finite elements (FE) within the framework of poromechanics, with the objective of isolating the con ...
