Nonlinear Wave Propagation in Brass Instruments
(University of Waterloo, 2013-01-25)The study of wave production and propagation is a common phenomenon seen within a variety of math and physics problems. This thesis in particular will investigate the production and propagation of sound waves through musical ... -
Three-dimensional simulations of sound propagation in a trumpet with accurate mouthpiece shank geometry
(arXiv, 2016-11-01)The length and bore geometry of musical instruments directly influences the quality of sound that can be produced. In brass instruments, nonlinear effects from finite-amplitude wave propagation can lead to wave distortion ... -
The Trumpets
(University of Waterloo, 2008-05-07)The work of my MFA thesis exhibition comes directly out of the physical processes that constitute my studio practice. It is work that embodies the labour of my hands and the decisions that guided them in their struggle ...
