ChAnGE'S Music

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Joseph Lloyd Anderson's ChAnGE'S Music. A translation of the composer's words, from a letter to pianist Hadley McCarroll, illuminate that the composer tends "to think of ChanG E S Music as a phonographic fantasy because it plays out in each of Dellaria's three sound recording modes: Record-as-Document, Pseudo-Document, and abstraction. In order to really begin to understand him, I believe the listener needs to have an idea of ​​who [composer John] Cage is and why he is interesting. It is also useful to be aware of the Music of Changes, since the version edited by Wergo is the pseudo document with which my piece begins, and it constitutes one of the first 'silent' pieces of Cage (with 4'33''). It is about the need for the composer's ego to step aside before the music so that it can speak clearly. The pseudo document is fun because it allows us to make someone play what has never been played, and say what has never been said, while passing it off as a kind of auditory truth. Cage's opening text where he puts forward the beginnings of all this using recordings as instruments is actually taken from a statement explaining why …

Le chant des pistes

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Jean-Louis Poliart's Le chant des pistes. For electronics. The Dreamtime is this very distant period, this lost paradise of which the Aborigines still speak, during which each thing and each being had a soul, from which emanated a vibration, a sound, a music. Instant lighting where everything is possible in total harmony starting from the simplest things. This primitive and virgin period unfolds in melodic tracks that lead to other perceptions, to different emotions. Dreamtime is a three-part cycle: Prelude, Madelgaire le Souffle, and Le chant des pistes.

Characterization of Hanford N Reactor spent fuel and K Basin sludges (open access)

Characterization of Hanford N Reactor spent fuel and K Basin sludges

Characterization is in progress for the N Reactor fuel stored in the Hanford K Basins. These activities` support the strategy for removal of fuel from the basins and storage of fuel in a dry condition at an area remote from the Columbia River. This strategy currently consists of placing fuel in a Multi-Canister Overpack (MCO), drying the fuel while it resides in the MCO and conditioning some portion of the fuel to reduce its chemical reactivity. Characterization includes the examination of fuel, canisters, and associated sludge. It consists firstly of in-basin activities such as visual examination, sludge depth measurements, and sampling of gas and liquid in canisters. Secondly characterization ecompasses the examination of samples of fuel and sludge which have been removed from the basins and shipped to laboratories. This paper presents observations made in the basins during the most recent attempts to ship samples from the basins and data obtained in the laboratory hotcells.

Characterization of lithium phosphorous oxynitride thin films (open access)

Characterization of lithium phosphorous oxynitride thin films

Electrical and electrochemical properties of an amorphous thin-film lithium electrolyte, lithium phosphorous oxynitride (Lipon), have been studied with emphasis on the stability window vs Li metal and the behavior of the Li/Lipon interface. Ion conductivity of Lipon exhibits Arrhenius behavior at {minus}26 to +140 C, with a conductivity of 1.7 {times} 10{sup {minus}6}S/cm at 25 C and an activity energy of 0.50 {plus_minus} 0.01 eV. A stability window of 5.5 V was observed with respect to a Li{sup +}/Li reference, and no detectable reaction or degradation was evident at the Li/Lipon interface upon lithium cycling.

CHEMFORM user`s guide (open access)

CHEMFORM user`s guide

CHEMFORM is a DOS-based program which converts geochemical data files into the format read by the U.S. Geological Survey family of models: WATEQ4F, PHREEQE, or NETPATH. These geochemical models require data formatted in a particular order, which typically does not match data storage. CHEMFORM converts geochemical data that are stored in an ASCII file to input files that can be read by these models, without being re-entered by hand. The data may be in any order and format in the original file, as long as they are separated by blanks. The location of each data element in the input file is entered in CHEMFORM. Any required data that are not present in your file may also be entered. The positions of the data in the input file are saved to be used as defaults for the next run. CHEMFORM runs in two modes. In the first mode, it will read one input file and write one output file. The input file may contain data on multiple lines, and the user will specify both line number and position of each item in CHEMFORM. This mode facilitates the conversion of the input from one model to the format needed by another model. …

Chemically enhanced mixed region vapor stripping of TCE-contaminated saturated peat and silty clay soils (open access)

Chemically enhanced mixed region vapor stripping of TCE-contaminated saturated peat and silty clay soils

The objective of this study was to conduct further testing of MRVS, chemically enhanced with calcium oxide conditioning, on field- contaminated soils collected from beneath the NASA Michoud Rinsewater Impoundment. In this study, residual soil VOC levels as a function of vapor stripping time were measured to quantify VOC removal rates. Physical and chemical soil parameters expected to affect MRVS efficiency were measures. The effects of varying the calcium oxide loadings as well as varying the vapor stripping flow rates on VOC removal were also evaluated. The results of this study will be used to determine whether acceptable removals can be achieved within reasonable treatment times, remediation costs being directly proportional to the latter. The purpose of this report is to document the experimental results of this study, as well as to address issues that were raised after completion of the previous Michoud treatability work.

Chemistry modification of high oxygen-carbon powder by plasma melting (open access)

Chemistry modification of high oxygen-carbon powder by plasma melting

State-of-the-art melting of tantalum and tantalum alloys has relied on electron beam (EB) or vacuum-arc remelting (VAR) for commercial ingot production. The limited number of melting techniques for these materials are the result of high melting temperatures and reactivity with conventional mold/crucible materials. In addition, the required vacuum levels used in the EB and VAR processes limit these techniques to relatively low interstitial content material due toe extensive outgassing during melting. Plasma arc melting (PAM) provides and alternative for melting tantalum and offers the advantage or processing under inert or other gases rather than vacuum, The plasma process is not sensitive to materials outgassing and allows for the direct recycling of material that would otherwise be reprocessed by chemical extraction. The current work examines melting of high interstitial content tantalum powder by the plasma arc process. Various cover gases of argon-hydrogen and helium-hydrogen were investigated to determine best melt quality. Melted ingots were characterized by chemical and metallographic methods to determine overall interstitial content, compound and morphology.
