    No full text
    This interview was conducted by Lenora M. Jeffcoat ‘01 and Ryan Holcombe with Dr. David M. Lowry, Professor Emeritus of Music at Winthrop University, Rock Hill, SC. Dr. Lowry reflects on his storied career as an organist and college professor. He first touches on his early years as an aspiring musician and later highlights his work as an educator and advocate for organ playing—whether in the classroom or church. Dr. Lowry also recounts the installation of the Gabriel Kney Organ in Barnes Recital Hall as well as the restoration of the D.B. Johnson Memorial Organ in Byrnes Auditorium, both at Winthrop University. Other topics of conversation include the centrality of the Church and congregations in regard to the presence and upkeep of organs. Dr. David M. Lowry (b. 1938) is a notable organist, harpsichordist, music director, and retired Professor of Music (1965-2012) at Winthrop University, Rock Hill, SC. At the time of the interview, he served as the Parish Musician of the Church of the Good Shepard in Columbia, SC and as the principal of the Anglo-Catholic Parish of the Episcopal Diocese of Upper South Carolina. He previously served as the Music Director of the York County Choral Society in Rock Hill (1980-2011). Dr. Lowry has been an active member and officer of several music organizations including the Association of Anglican Musicians (AAM), Royal School of Church Music (RSCM), and the American Guild of Organists (AGO). He holds several academic degrees including a Doctor of Musical Arts (DMA) from the University of North Texas. Professor Lowry has also completed studies in New College – Oxford (UK) as well as in Haarlem, the Netherlands.https://digitalcommons.winthrop.edu/oralhistoryprogram/1708/thumbnail.jp

    Samuel Lowry Latimer, Jr. Papers - Accession 530

    No full text
    The personal papers of Samuel Lowry Latimer, Jr. (1891-1975) include insurance, financial and tax records, various state-related pamphlets, photographs (mainly from The State newspaper) and postcards, and galley proofs of Three Scores and Ten, a history of The State written by Mr. Latimer (published in 1970 under the title The Story of The State and the Gonzales Brothers, see appendix #2). Also included are items of personal and business correspondence of Mr. Latimer and Major McDavid Horton (1884-1941) (editor of The State from 1938 to 1941), various personal items and memorabilia from Mr. Latimer’s two trips abroad, newspaper clippings and articles relating to or published in The State, critiques of The Story of The State and the Gonzales Brothers done by Mrs. Albert D. (May) Oliphant, and several miscellaneous newspaper articles. One of the major subjects of the collection is founding of The State newspapers and the Gonzales Brothers. The Gonzales brothers are Narciso Gener Gonzales (1858-1903), Ambrose Elliott Gonzales (1857-1926), and William Gonzales (1866-1937) and the former two founded The State newspaper in Columbia, SC in 1891. Narciso would later be gunned down on January 15, 1903 (he died four days later) by James H. Tillman. James Tillman was Lieutenant Governor of South Carolina (and nephew of SC Senator Benjamin Tillman) and was a frequent target of criticism by the paper. Tillman would be acquitted by a jury despite many witnesses and received no punishment.https://digitalcommons.winthrop.edu/manuscriptcollection_findingaids/1623/thumbnail.jp

    High-resolution clean-sc

    No full text
    In this paper a high-resolution extension of CLEAN-SC is proposed: HR-CLEAN-SC. Where CLEAN-SC uses peak sources in “dirty maps” to define so-called source components, HR-CLEAN-SC takes advantage of the fact that source components can likewise be derived from points at some distance from the peak, as long as these “source markers” are on the main lobe of the Point Spread Function (PSF). This is very useful when sources are closely spaced together, such that their PSFs interfere. Then, alternative markers can be sought in which the relative influence by PSFs of other source positions is minimised. For those markers the source components better agree with the actual sources, which allows for better estimation of their locations and strengths. This paper outlines the theory needed to understand this approach and discusses applications to 2D and 3D microphone array simulations with closely spaced sources

    Extração, recuperação e atividade da alfa-quimiotripsina em sistemas de micelas reversas

    Tese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Ciências Físicas e Matemáticas.Neste trabalho, estudou-se a transferência reversa de a-quimiotripsina (a-CT) em sistemas de micela reversa com diferentes surfactantes (AOT, lecitina de soja- SbPC, C12E4 e CTAB), para a fase aquosa receptora de NaOH contendo 2,5% de etanol O pH da solução aquosa de a-CT injetada na solução orgânica, influenciou no processo de transferência, em pH 7,7 obteve-se valores mais elevados. A determinação do teor protéico na fase aquosa após a transferência, foi realizada através do método de Lowry. A reação de hidrólise do n-glutaril-L-fenilalanina-p-nitroanilida - GPNA em meio de micela reversa de AOT catalisada pela a-CT obedece a cinética de Michaelis-Menten na faixa de [GPNA] = 0,056 ´ 10-5 - 1,110 ´ 10-5 M. O valor da KM e a Vmáx obtidas foram 6,83 ´ 10-5 M e 3,68 ´ 10-4 s-1, respectivamente. A desidratação da solução de micela reversa de AOT/heptano contendo a-CT, foi realizada através do equilíbrio da fase vapor da solução micelar com LiCl umedecido. A atividade catalítica da a-CT em pH 7,0; 7,7; 8,2 e 9,0, durante o processo de desidratação, diminuiu e aumentou após a re-hidratação do sistema, mostrando que a enzima não foi desnaturada, permanecendo em estado "dormente". Esta propriedade é extremamente importante para a indústria alimentícia e farmacêutica na obtenção de aroma instáveis

    Ca-modified Al–Mg–Sc alloy with high strength at elevated temperatures due to a hierarchical microstructure

    No full text
    Al-Mg alloys are normally prone to lose part of their yield and tensile strength at high temperatures due to insufficient thermal stability of the microstructure. Here, we present a Ca-modified Al–Mg–Sc alloy demonstrating high strength at elevated temperatures. The microstructure contains Al4Ca phases distributed as a network along the grain boundary and Al3(Sc,Zr) nano-particles dispersed within the grains. The microstructure evolution and age-hardening analysis indicate that the combination of an Al4Ca network and Sc-rich nano-particles leads to excellent thermal stability even upon aging at 300 °C. The tensile strength of the alloy for temperatures up to 250 °C is significantly improved by an aging treatment and is comparable with the commercial heat-resistant aluminum alloys, i.e., A356 and A319. At a high temperature of 300 °C, the tensile strength is superior to the above-mentioned commercial alloys, even more so when expressed as the specific strength due to the low density of Ca-modified Al–Mg–Sc alloy. The excellent high-temperature strength results from a synergistic effect of solid solution strengthening, grain boundary strengthening and nanoparticle order strengthening.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Novel Aerospace Material
