Soft cover. Condition: Good. pp107-118, four plates. Removed from ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BOARD OF REGENTS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, FOR THE YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 1899. VG. In plastic report covers. From the report: "On the other hand, eminent mathematicians, since the days of Newton and the discovery of the method of the calculus, have been pursuing the investigation of the behavior of a perfect liquid. The mathematical methods which I have already alluded to as being so wonderful, have, however, scarcely been brought to bear with any apparent result upon the behavior of a viscous fluid." I found this to be a very difficult article, inasmuch as I know almost nothing about the subject of hydromechanics.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating realm of mechanical integrators, instruments designed to perform complex calculations mechanically. Emerging from a rich history of mathematical and engineering innovation, these devices offer a glimpse into a time when human ingenuity sought to overcome computational challenges through intricate mechanisms. The author meticulously examines the theory, design, and practical applications of these instruments, tracing their evolution from early odometers and planimeters to more sophisticated models capable of measuring areas, lengths, and even moments of inertia. Particular attention is given to the Amsler planimeter, a groundbreaking invention that revolutionized area calculations and became a cornerstone of engineering practice. Through detailed explanations and illustrations, the book unveils the mathematical principles underlying these integrators, exploring concepts such as integration, summation, and the interplay between slipping and rolling motion. The author's insights illuminate the ingenuity of these mechanical marvels, showcasing their ability to translate complex mathematical operations into tangible, measurable results. This exploration not only offers a historical perspective on computational tools but also underscores the enduring quest for precision and efficiency in problem-solving. 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.

London, Harrison and Sons, 1886. 4to. No wrappers as extracted from "Philosophical Transactions", 1885. Vol. 176 - Part II, Pp. 367-402 a. 34 textillustr. First appearance of an importent paper in the history of calculating machines."In his first year at Liverpool he published a paper on 'The theory of continuous calculating machines and of a mechanism of this class on a new principle' in the prestigious Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society. This work investigated how to advance the design of integrator mechanisms and fit them for tasks more complex than mere numerical calculating machines, and was extremely important in the development of analogue computing."(Jane Carruthers).
