Drum Malting

Influence of Malting on Sorghum Protein Quality

The microbiology of malting and brewing.

Brewing beer involves microbial activity at every stage, from raw material production and malting to stability in the package. Most of these activities are desirable, as beer is the result of a traditional food fermentation, but others represent threats to the quality of the final product and must be controlled actively through careful management, the daily task of maltsters and brewers globall...

Boiler Drum-level Modeling

In this paper, a mathematical model is developed to describe the dynamics of the drum-level of a natural circulation boiler. A boiler-drum is divided into two parts; the upper part contains saturated steam while the lower part contains a steam/water mixture. The ratio of the steam in that mixture is defined in this work as the steam volumetric ratio. On the other hand, balance equations are app...

Digital Drum Tutor

This thesis investigates issues surrounding the design and implementation of a digital drum tutor. People have been developing digital tutors in all fields of study in an attempt to replace or complement human instructors. This drum tutor aims to replace a human instructor in some cases, but mostly to guide a student’s practice sessions, which is where the most improvement occurs. While using t...

The Evolving Drum Machine

The expectation of the listener from house and techno music seems to be that percussion sounds will maintain the same timbre for the duration of a piece of music. For the composers of such musics the synthesizing of drum sounds of a quality equal to those available from commercial drum machines or samples is difficult and seems unnecessary. A system is presented here which provides a unique met...
