Conflicts Between Generalization, Rigor, and Intuition
This volume is, as may be readily apparent, the fruit of many years’ labor in archives and libraries, unearthing rare books, researching Nachlässe, and above all, systematic comparative analysis of fecund sources. The work not only demanded much time in preparation, but was also interrupted by other duties, such as time spent as a guest professor at universities abroad, which of course provided welcome opportunities to present and discuss the work, and in particular, the organizing of the 1994 International Graßmann Conference and the subsequent editing of its proceedings. If it is not possible to be precise about the amount of time spent on this work, it is possible to be precise about the date of its inception. In 1984, during research in the archive of the École polytechnique, my attention was drawn to the way in which the massive rupture that took place in 1811—precipitating the change back to the synthetic method and replacing the limit method by the method of the quantités infiniment petites—significantly altered the teaching of analysis at this first modern institution of higher education, an institution originally founded as a citadel of the analytic method.
The History of the Theory of Structures
This book traces the evolution of theory of structures and strength of materials - the development of the geometrical thinking of the Renaissance to become the fundamental engineering science discipline rooted in classical mechanics. Starting with the strength experiments of Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo, the author examines the emergence of individual structural analysis methods and their formation into theory of structures in the 19th century. For the first time, a book of this kind outlines the development from classical theory of structures to the structural mechanics and computational mechanics of the 20th century. In doing so, the author has managed to bring alive the differences betwe...
Fluid Mechanics
The material in the book has been presented in a very simple but effective language in order to enable students to master the subject matter thoroughly without coming across the hurdle of highly technical language. Needless to emphasise, this book has been designed as a self learing capsule. With this aim the material has been organised in a logical order with lots of illustrative examples to enable students to thoroughly master the subject.
Dictionary of Mechanical Engineering
This book contains important words and terminologies of the core subjects in mechanical engineering such as engineering mechanics, strength of materials, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, IC engines, heat and mass transfer, refrigeration and air-conditioning, manufacturing processes, theory of machines, industrial engineering and management, electric vehicles, etc. that are explained in a concise and lucid manner. The contents also touch upon some terminologies of basic science subjects. This dictionary is an easy-to-use and a practical resource which will be highly useful for undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers, and industry professionals in the field of mechanical engineering.
Plant Flow Measurement and Control Handbook
Plant Flow Measurement and Control Handbook is a comprehensive reference source for practicing engineers in the field of instrumentation and controls. It covers many practical topics, such as installation, maintenance and potential issues, giving an overview of available techniques, along with recommendations for application. In addition, it covers available flow sensors, such as automation and control. The author brings his 35 years of experience in working in instrumentation and control within the industry to this title with a focus on fluid flow measurement, its importance in plant design and the appropriate control of processes. The book provides a good balance between practical issues a...
Fluid Mechanics and Machinery
Fluid Mechanics and Machinery is a comprehensive exploration of the principles governing fluid behavior and the machinery utilized in fluid systems. Fundamental concepts of fluid mechanics, including fluid properties, dynamics, and statics, while also delving into the design, operation, and analysis of various fluid machinery such as pumps, turbines, and compressors. Through detailed illustrations and real-world applications, it equips readers with a solid understanding of fluid dynamics and the engineering practices necessary for effective fluid management in diverse industrial contexts.
Water Treatment Unit Processes
The unit process approach, common in the field of chemical engineering, was introduced about 1962 to the field of environmental engineering. An understanding of unit processes is the foundation for continued learning and for designing treatment systems. The time is ripe for a new textbook that delineates the role of unit process principles in environmental engineering. Suitable for a two-semester course, Water Treatment Unit Processes: Physical and Chemical provides the grounding in the underlying principles of each unit process that students need in order to link theory to practice. Bridging the gap between scientific principles and engineering practice, the book covers approaches that are ...
