چکیده

We outline a theory of tonality that predicts tonal stability, attraction, and categorization based on the principles of nonlinear resonance. Perception of tonality is the natural consequence of neural resonance, arising from central auditory nonlinearities.

Musical Tonality, Neural Resonance and Hebbian Learning

A new theory of musical tonality is explored, which treats the central auditory pathway as a complex nonlinear dynamical system. The theory predicts that as networks of neural oscillators phase-lock to musical stimuli, stability and attraction relationships will develop among frequencies, and these dynamic forces correspond to perceptions of stability and attraction among musical tones. This pa...

Vibration Analysis of a Nonlinear System with a Nonlinear Absorber under the Primary and Super-harmonic Resonances (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Abstract   In vibratory systems, linear and nonlinear vibration absorbers can be used to suppress the primary and super-harmonic resonance responses. In this paper, the behavior of a nonlinear system with a nonlinear absorber, under the primary and super-harmonic resonances is investigated. The stiffnesses of the main system and the absorber are cubically nonlinear and the dampers are linear. M...

Combination Resonance of Nonlinear Rotating Balanced Shafts Subjected to Periodic Axial Load

Dynamic behavior of a circular shaft with geometrical nonlinearity and constant spin, subjected to periodic axial load is investigated. The case of parametric combination resonance is studied. Extension of shaft center line is the source of nonlinearity. The shaft has gyroscopic effect and rotary inertia but shear deformation is neglected. The equations of motion are derived by extended Hamilto...

Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis of Cracked Micro-Beams Below and at the Onset of Dynamic Pull-In Instability

In this paper, the effect of the crack on dynamic behavior of cracked micro-beam in the presence of DC and AC loads are investigated. By applying the residual axial stress and fringing field stress, a nonlinear analytical model of cracked micro-beam is presented and crack is modeled by a massless rotational spring. The governing equation of the system is solved using Galerkin procedure and shoo...

Neurodynamics, tonality, and the auditory brainstem response.

Tonal relationships are foundational in music, providing the basis upon which musical structures, such as melodies, are constructed and perceived. A recent dynamic theory of musical tonality predicts that networks of auditory neurons resonate nonlinearly to musical stimuli. Nonlinear resonance leads to stability and attraction relationships among neural frequencies, and these neural dynamics gi...
