Orphan date October 2010 Percussion welding PEW is a type of resistance welding that blends dissimilar metal s together. Percussion welding creates a high temperature Electric arc arc that is formed from a short quick electrical discharge. Immediately following the electrical discharge, pressure is applied which forges the materials together. This type of joining brings the materials together in a percussive manner. Percussion welding is similar to flash welding and upset welding but is generally considered to be more complex. It is considered to be more complex because it uses an electric discharge at the joint, followed by pressure being applied to join the materials together. Percussion welding is used to join dissimilar metals together, or used when flash is not required at the joint. This type of welding is limited to the materials having the same cross sectional areas and geometries. Percussion welding is used on materials that have small cross sectional areas. Advantages of using percussion welding types include a shallow heat affected zone, and the time cycle involved is very short. Typical times can be found to be less than 16 millisecond s.

Vocal percussion is the art of creating sounds with one s mouth that approximate, imitate, or otherwise serve the same purpose as a percussion instrument , whether in a group of singers, an instrumental ensemble, or solo. In Western music The term beatboxing is often used as a synonym for vocal percussion, but in fact is just one tradition of vocal percussion, originating in Hip hop music hip hop music and often used to accompany rapping . The vocal percussion used by most college and professional a cappella groups attempts a more complete facsimile of the pop music that these groups primarily perform. It is not necessary for vocal percussionists to attempt to imitate real instruments in fact, vocal percussion often encompasses sounds not found on a drum kit drum set . When it is used to imitate drumset music, however, vocal percussionists use three basic sounds bass drum , snare drum , and cymbal . Variations on these sounds can be used to approximate other elements of a drum kit. A pitched bass drum is used to replace a floor tom cymbal sounds can either be made short like a high hat employing a sharp ts ts ts sound or long like a crash or ride cymbal attacked with a psh or a ksh sound . When used in a cappella music, vocal percussion is used to keep time for the members of the ensemble. It is sometimes the only percussion that can be heard by the audience, and works as a compliment to the music director s conducting.

Latin Percussion , also known as LP , is a brand of percussion instrument s, specializing in ethnic instruments engineered and manufactured to withstand the rigors of use in a drum kit , orchestra l Percussion instrument percussion section, and similar applications. This re engineering often involves not only greater and consistent durability, but also changes to the sound to enable the instrument to be played at a suitable volume without losing the distinctive feel of its sound. History LP was founded in New York in 1964 by Martin Cohen, following his difficulty in obtaining instruments for his own use, partly because of restrictions then in place on imports of instruments and everything else from Cuba following the Cuban missile crisis of 1962. Unable to buy conga s, Bongo drum bongos and similar instruments of the quality he saw other performers using, he manufactured his own. After much trial and error he produced acceptable results, and found a ready market for such instruments. As the company expanded, it added imported lines to its catalog, and also became an exporter. Product line LP pioneered the use of many ethnic based instruments for wider musical uses, and continues to be a leading innovator in this area.

unreferenced date February 2009 The percussion rifle is a rifle that uses a percussion cap instead of older flintlock or matchlock variants. Faster reloading and fewer moving parts made this rifle more versatile and rugged compared to other single shot rifles. The United States U.S. adopted the percussion system in 1841 and produced an infantry rifle that same year. This was a .54 caliber, 33 inch barrel percussion rifle. The new arm was very popular, since it was accurate and easy to handle, and its browned barrel finish contrasting with the bright brass furniture gave it a pleasing appearance. It won fame in the Mexican American War with Jefferson Davis regiment of Mississippi riflemen at the battle of Buena Vista , and its continuing popularity was such that most Confederate rifle manufacturers later copied its overall style. Some were later converted to .58 caliber and fitted with long range rear sights, but those used at Mill Springs seem to have been the original .54 caliber variety, which had simple notch rear sights.

The center of percussion is the point on an object where a perpendicular impact will produce translational and rotational forces which perfectly cancel each other out at some given pivot point, so that the pivot will not be moving momentarily after the impulse. The same point is called the center of oscillation for the object suspended from the pivot as a pendulum . Centers of percussion are often discussed in the context of a bat, racquet , sword or other long thin objects. The center of percussion may or may not be the sweet spot depending on the pivot point chosen. Further explanation Imagine a beam is suspended from a wire by a U bolt so that it can move freely along the wire. A blow to the beam below the center of gravity will cause the beam to rotate around the CG center of gravity and also cause the CG to move away from the blow. If the blow falls above the CP center of percussion the movement of the CG will cause the U bolt to move away from the blow since the effect of the translational acceleration will outweigh the effect of the rotational acceleration.
