Creatine: Polymorphs Predicted and Found
Hydrate and anhydrate crystal structure prediction (CSP) of creatine (CTN), a heavily used, badly water soluble, zwitterionic compound, has enabled the finding and characterization of its anhydrate polymorphs, including the thermodynamic room temperature form. Crystal structures of the novel forms were determined by combining laboratory powder X-ray diffraction data and ab initio generated stru...
متن کاملMbira/Timbila, Karimba/Marimba: A Look at Some Relationships Between African Mbira and Marimba
These Kaffirs have another musical instrument, also called an ambira, very similar to that just described, but it is all made of iron instead of gourds, being composed of narrow flat rods of iron about a palm in length, tempered in the fire so that each has a different sound. There are only nine of these rods, placed in a row close together, with the ends nailed to a piece of wood like the brid...
متن کاملMaximum Respiratory Pressures: Values Found and Predicted in Children
The respiratory muscle strength (RMS) has been measured by way of pressures generated by the respiratory muscles and measured in the mouth against an occluded via connected to an equipment known as a manovacuometer. In the inspiratory phase the maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) is measured, which translates the strength of the inspiratory muscles, and in the expiratory phase, the maximum expir...
متن کاملA Shona Mbira Performance in Zimbabwe
Heading toward the roundhouse after dark, I heard the powerful sound of people playing hosho (large maraca-like shakers) from some distance down the path. As I entered the dimly lit kitchen hut where the ceremony was being held, I could make out people clapping, singing, talking, and drinking; one frail old woman was dancing by herself in the center of the room. Beneath all of this there was st...
متن کاملVibrational frequencies and tuning of the African mbira.
The acoustic spectrum of the mbira, a musical instrument from Africa that produces sound by the vibration of cantilevered metal rods, has been measured. It is found that the most prominent overtones present in the spectrum have frequencies that are approximately 5 and 14 times the lowest frequency. A finite-element model of the vibration of the key that takes into account the acoustic radiation...
