Fishing for complements with chord, scale, and rhythm nets

The aim of this paper is to argue that complementation is an operation similarly fundamental to music theory as transposition and inversion. We focus on studying the chromatic complement mapping that translates diatonic seventh chords into 8-note scales wh ...

Measurements of internal cracking in punching test slabs without shear reinforcement

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Jürgen Einpaul

Advancing the knowledge about the punching behaviour of flat slabs has been held back by the fact that only indirect measurements of the internal failure mechanism have typically been available. In this paper, a novel experimental approach for tracking the ...
