Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents readers with a series of experimental investigations and innovative ideas that are the product of over 30 years' research by the author. Conducted jointly by the Royal Society and the British Association for the Advancement of Science, these experiments were designed to provide a holistic and data-driven approach to the study of wrought iron. As such, the book is the culmination of decades of research, spanning the disciplines of engineering, applied mathematics and theoretical physics. It provides essential knowledge on the mechanical properties of iron and steel, including tensile strength, elastic modulus and yield strength. However, rather than simply present a list of data and statistics, the author uses these experimental results to develop and enhance existing analytical tools, suggesting innovative uses for them, including the creation of more efficient and safer steam engines and boilers. The book will be beneficial to anyone with an interest in practical engineering and theoretical physics, or the history of science. 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. …
