Book excerpt: Excerpt from High Steam-Pressures in Locomotive Service, Vol. 26: A Review of a Report to the Carnegie Institution of Washington The Engineering Experiment Station was established by action of the Board of Trustees December 8, 1903. It is the purpose of the Station to carry on investigations along various lines of engineering and to study problems of importance to professional engineers and to the manufacturing, railway, mining, constructional, and industrial interests of the State. The control of the Engineering Experiment Station is vested in the heads of the several departments of the College of Engineering. These constitute the Station Staff, and with the Director, determine the character of the investigations to be undertaken. The work is carried on under the supervision of the Staff; sometimes by a research fellow as graduate work, sometimes by a member of the instructional force of the College of Engineering, but more frequently by an investigator belonging to the Station corps. The results of these investigations are published in the form of bulletins, which record mostly the experiments of the Stations own staff of investigators. There will also be issued from time to time in the form of circulars, compilations giving the results of the experiments of engineers, industrial works, technical institutions, and governmental testing departments. The volume and number at the top of the title page of the cover are merely arbitrary numbers and refer to the general publications of the University of Illinois; above the title is given the number of the Engineering Experiment Station bulletin or circular which should be used in referring to these publications. For copies of bulletins, circulars or other information, address the Engineering Experiment Station, Urbana, Illinois.
