The hymns and responds of John Sheppard
No full textThe Office hymns and responds of John Sheppard make up the major part of his compositional output. With few exceptions, very little music for the Office by other composers remains, so his work is of especial interest. Biographical details about Sheppard are scant, but he was closely associated with two important musical institutions: Magdalen College, Oxford, where he was informator choristarum, and the Chapel Royal, where he served as a Gentleman. The liturgy of the church had a profound effect upon musical composition and this study considers the music in its historical context. The background to Magdalen College and the Chapel Royal is considered and the development of the Office respond is traced. Sheppard's technique of composition and the problems associated with editing and interpreting this music are discussed

A study on surface cracking in extrusion of aluminium alloy AA2014
No full textSurface cracking is generally recognised as one of the main defects occurring during the process of aluminium
extrusion, especially in the case of the so called hard aluminium alloys. Previous experiments suggest that this type of defect is caused by the rise in temperature as the process proceeds. Some experiments indicate that the surface
quality is good even though the temperature may be high during extrusion. It is also well known that crack criteria
have been adopted to explain the cracking that occurs in extrusion, blanking and rolling, etc. In this study, a finite element method (FEM) is used in different ways to predict surface cracking during hot extrusion. The crack criteria are integrated into the FEM code FORGE12.0. The effectiveness of these criteria in predicting surface cracking in the case of hot extrusion is discussed. The FEM simulation also provides some other quantitative data, such as the temperature rise during extrusion from different initial temperatures. In addition, the principal stresses at the die land area at different extrusion stages are also shown
