Excerpt from A Text-Book on Applied Mechanics, Vol. 1: Specially Arranged for the Use of Science and Arts, City and Guilds of London Institute, and Other Engineering Students This Text-Book has been written expressly for Second and Third Year Students of Applied Mechanics. It, therefore, forms a suitable companion to the Author's Text-Book on Steam and Steam Engines. It also forms a direct continuation of his Elementary Manual on Applied Mechanics; for it covers the Advanced Stage of the Science and Art Departments Examinations, and treats on many points demanded by the Honours Section. It will, moreover, be found of considerable use to those who aim at passing the Advanced and Honours Stages of the same Examinations in Machine Construction and Drawing, as well as the Examinations of the City and Guilds of London Institute in Mechanical Engineering. At the same time, the treatment of the subject is sufficiently general to satisfy the wants of other engineering students who do not happen to have these Special Examinations in view. The book has been divided into six parts: - I. The Principle of Work and its Applications. II. Gearing. III. Motion and Energy. IV. Strength of Materials. V. Graphic Statics. VI. Hydraulics and Hydraulic Machinery. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explains the principles behind machines and structures, how they work, and how they can be optimised and tested for strength and efficiency. Drawing from an array of examples, the author illustrates the principles of work in action via topics such as friction and power tests. This volume, part of a series, is an indispensable reference for mechanical engineers, showcasing how key concepts such as force, efficiency, and elasticity are measured and calculated. The author shows how practical applications of these principles can be utilised within a vast range of disciplines including civil engineering, machine design, and vehicle engineering. By examining the relationship between applied force, resistance, motion, and energy, the author provides scientifically robust analyses that will aid engineers in the design and development of effective and efficient structures and machines. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330200377_0
