Vergiß, daß du Musiker bist : Notate zum Problem einer filmspezifischen Musik

Künstlerische Konsequenz hat ihren Preis. Der Theoretiker fordert sie vom Praktiker im Namen stilistischer Reinheit oder medienspezifischer Integrität, Stimmigkeit der kompositorischen Methode oder dramaturgischer Effizienz und schert sich wenig um dessen Sachzwänge vor Ort. Jedoch muß heutzutage ein Film- resp. Medienkomponist - mehr denn je - über Fähigkeiten und Fertigkeiten verfügen, die jenseits solider Kenntnisse des traditionellen Tonsatzes und Kontrapunktes liege

In-situ investigations of structural changes during cyclic loading by high resolution reciprocal space mapping

A major failure reason for structural materials is fatigue-related damage due to repeatedly changing mechanical loads. During cyclic loading dislocations self-organize into characteristic ordered structures, which play a decisive role for the materials lifetime. These heterogeneous dislocation structures can be identified using advanced electron microscopy and synchrotron techniques. A detailed characterization of the microstructure during cyclic loading by in-situ monitoring the internal structure within individual grains with high energy x-rays can help to understand and predict the materials behavior during cyclic deformation and to improve the material design. While monitoring macroscopic stress and strain during cyclic loading, reciprocal space maps of diffraction peaks from single grains are obtained with high resolution. High Resolution Reciprocal Space Mapping was applied successfully in-situ during cyclic deformation of macroscopic aluminium samples at the Advanced Photon Source to reveal the structural reorganization within single grains embedded in the bulk material during fatigue

Monitoring microstructural evolution in-situ during cyclic deformation by high resolution reciprocal space mapping

The recently developed synchrotron technique High Resolution Reciprocal Space Mapping (HRRSM) is used to characterize the deformation structures evolving during cyclic deformation of commercially pure, polycrystalline aluminium AA1050. Insight into the structural reorganization within single grains is gained by in-situ monitoring of the microstructural evolution during cyclic deformation. By HRRSM, a large number of individual subgrains can be resolved within individual grains in the bulk of polycrystalline specimens and their fate, their individual orientation and elastic stresses, tracked during different loading regimes as tension and compression. With this technique, the evolution of dislocation structures in selected grains was followed during an individual load cycle
