More Recent Developments

A summary of our state of knowledge regarding the musical acoustics of brass instruments was recently given by Campbell [72].

Recent research by Cullen et al. [97] and Gilbert et al. [161,163] has been concerned with artificial mouth experiments to verify a theoretical model of vibrating lips, and to calibrate the model to realistic playing conditions. These data can be used in the construction of improved lip-valve models for virtual brass instruments. Additional recent literature relevant to brass instruments includes [187,186,188,251,534,324,334,344,542,543,544,451].
