Excerpt from The Elastic Strength of Guns
This little book was prepared primarily for use by the midship men at the U. S. Naval Academy. It essays to present the subject of the elastic strength of guns as c'oncisely as is consistent with clearness, and to that end treats only of steel guns of modern con struction, built-up or wire-wound.
The hypothesis that permanent set will not occur unless the resultant strain in some direction exceeds the limit of elastic strain, regardless of what the stresses may be, is adopted. This hypothesis appears to the writer' to be the only reasonable one, but it is to be regretted that its truth has never been demonstrated experimentally.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the elastic strength of guns, a topic of crucial importance in understanding the design and capabilities of these powerful weapons. By investigating the stress and strain relationships within gun barrels, the author provides a comprehensive analysis of the factors that determine a gun's ability to withstand internal pressure. The book delves into the concepts of elastic limit, principal stresses, and true stresses, explaining how these parameters affect the behavior of guns under various loading conditions. Through a combination of theoretical derivations and practical examples, the author demonstrates how to calculate the maximum allowable internal pressure for a given gun design, ensuring its safe and efficient operation. This book offers a valuable resource for engineers, scientists, and anyone interested in the mechanics of firearms, providing a deeper understanding of the interplay between stress, strain, and the elastic limits of materials under pressure. 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. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9780282910792_0
