Applications of Space Flight in Materials Science and Technology: Proceedings of a Conference Held at the National Bureau of Standards, Gaithersburg, Maryland, April 20-21, 1977 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Inhaltsangabe
Excerpt from Applications of Space Flight in Materials Science and Technology<br/><br/>This conference is the outgrowth of a letter from Dr. James Fletcher, the Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (nasa), to Dr. Ernest Ambler, Acting Director of the National Bureau of Standards (nbs). The letter requested the assistance of the nbs in setting up a conference devoted to the subject of the Applications of Space Flight in Materials Science and Technology. It was felt that the nbs would provide a most suitable location for such a conference in view of its established commitment to measurement sciences and to the characterization, properties, and performance of materials. The Program Committee decided upon a program that would first review those experiments that had been done in the Skylab and apollo-soyuz flights and the spar rocket program, and then devote itself to an examination of future prospects and opportunities for research and materials processing when the Space Shuttle becomes operable.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of materials science as it intersects with the realm of space exploration. The author takes readers on a journey through the history of materials science experiments conducted in space, beginning with the groundbreaking Skylab missions and the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project. Readers will discover how these experiments explored the effects of near-zero gravity on the properties and structures of various materials, including metals, alloys, and ceramics. The book examines the challenges and successes of these early space-based experiments, laying the foundation for a deeper understanding of the potential of space for materials research. The author meticulously explores the unique opportunities presented by the weightless environment, such as containerless processing, and the difficulties encountered in manipulating fluids in microgravity. The book not only provides a detailed account of these early experiments but also examines the broader context of materials science and its role in shaping our understanding of the world around us. This comprehensive exploration of the relationship between space flight and materials science offers valuable insights into the potential of these fields to push the boundaries of scientific knowledge and technological innovation. 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 9781390548327_0
