Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces a new method for measuring the resistance of materials to various kinds of deformation. The author, an experienced engineer, developed a new machine that accurately records the relationship between force applied and resulting deformation on a paper chart. This machine, and the accompanying graphic recording method, allow for easy visual inspection, which enables quick and accurate determinations of the breaking strength, elasticity, and other important characteristics of a material. The method also quantifies other properties such as the amount of energy absorbed by a material before fracture. The method detailed in this book has proven invaluable for the testing of wood, iron, and steel, and the results have already benefited bridge building and other engineering endeavors. This book is a must-have for anyone involved in the study, research, or manufacture of materials for construction or machinery. 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.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. We live in a time where environmental pressures, social inequities and political derision are the backdrop of everyday life, and where resilience has become a routine prescription for coping with the conditions of modern existence. Drawing an analogy to Harvey Molotchs urban growth machine, this book explores different narratives of resilience and their policy and practice manifestations for cities, citizens and communities. It expands on the metaphor of the machine to show how resilience can be better understood as an assemblage. Bringing together authors from multiple disciplines and different parts of the world, the book unmasks the often invisible effects of resilience strategies by examining ways in which neoliberal mentalities are fed through the rhetoric of resilience practices, policies and development projects. The contributing essays provide provocative accounts of several areas of inquiry, including biopolitics and smart bodies, resilient cities and communities, urban planning and disaster management, justice and vulnerability, and resistance to resilience. Holding out hope for critical potentials in resilience, The Resilience Machine proposes to move beyond mechanisms of adaptation and into imagining what resilient life could look like in a more just, equitable and democratic world.The Resilience Machine is a current, vital addition to resilience, community and urban scholarship. By exploring the ways in which the concept of resilience is institutionalized within policies and practices that impact the lived experience of individuals, the book addresses how the regressive potentials of resilience might be resisted and reshaped and how its progressive potentials might be drawn upon in pursuit of justice and democracy.
