Book excerpt: On 30 March 1966 a ceremony was held at the Research Library of the Air Force Cambridge Research Laboratories, Bedford, Massachusetts, to dedicate the Rayleigh Archives: a collection of the notebooks, manuscripts, working papers, and correspondence of the Lords Rayleigh (John William Strutt, the third Baron Rayleigh, and Robert John Strutt, the fourth Baron Rayleigh). The ceremony was attended by a distinguished group from both the military and the scientific community whose research interests relate to the two Rayleighs. The report is a transcript of the discussions of 'Rayleigh Day, ' with only a minimum of editing to correct minor errors that occurred in impromptu remarks. Contents include: Welcoming remarks at Rayleigh Day ceremony (by Dr. John N. Howard, Chief Scientist AFCRL; Colonel Robert F. Long, Commander, AFCRL; and Brigadier General Ernest A. Pinson, Commander, Office of Aerospace Research); Description of the material pertaining to the third Baron Rayleigh; Address by the Honorable Charles R. Strutt; Discussion of the scientific work of the third Baron Rayleigh (Scattering studies, Electrical studies, Argon and other studies); Comments by Professor Chapman on the influence of the fourth Baron Rayleigh on air glow and auroral research; Description of the material pertaining to the fourth Baron Rayleigh; Concluding remarks; Pictorial review of Rayleigh Day ceremony; Attendees at dedication ceremony; A summary of the AFCRL Rayleigh Archives.
Book Synopsis The Ethereal Aether by : Loyd S. Swenson

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ethereal Aether is a historical narrative of one of the great experiments in modern physical science. The fame of the 1887 Michelson-Morley aether-drift test on the relative motion of the earth and the luminiferous aether derives largely from the role it is popularly supposed to have played in the origins, and later in the justification, of Albert Einstein’s first theory of relativity; its importance is its own. As a case history of the intermittent performance of an experiment in physical optics from 1880 to 1930 and of the men whose work it was, this study describes chronologically the conception, experimental design, first trials, repetitions, influence on physical theory, and eventual climax of the optical experiment. Michelson, Morley, and their colleague Miller were the prime actors in this half-century drama of confrontation between experimental and theoretical physics. The issue concerned the relative motion of “Spaceship Earth” and the Universe, as measured against the background of a luminiferous medium supposedly filling all interstellar space. At stake, it seemed, were the phenomena of astronomical aberration, the wave theory of light, and the Newtonian concepts of absolute space and time. James Clerk Maxwell’s suggestion for a test of his electromagnetic theory was translated by Michelson into an experimental design in 1881, redesigned and reaffirmed as a null result with Morley in 1887, thereafter modified and partially repeated by Morley and Miller, finally completed in 1926 by Miller alone, then by Michelson’s team again in the late 1920s. Meanwhile Helmholtz, Kelvin, Rayleigh, FitzGerald, Lodge, Larmor, Lorentz, and Poincaré—most of the great names in theoretical physics at the turn of the twentieth century—had wrestled with the anomaly presented by Michelson’s experiment. As the relativity and quantum theories matured, wave-particle duality was accepted by a new generation of physicists. The aether-drift tests disproved the old and verified the new theories of light and electromagnetism. By 1930 they seemed to explain Einstein, relativity, and space-time. But in historical fact, the aether died only with its believers.

Book Synopsis Handbook On Timoshenko-ehrenfest Beam And Uflyand- Mindlin Plate Theories by : Isaac E Elishakoff
Download or read book Handbook On Timoshenko-ehrenfest Beam And Uflyand- Mindlin Plate Theories written by Isaac E Elishakoff and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 798 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The refined theory of beams, which takes into account both rotary inertia and shear deformation, was developed jointly by Timoshenko and Ehrenfest in the years 1911-1912. In over a century since the theory was first articulated, tens of thousands of studies have been performed utilizing this theory in various contexts. Likewise, the generalization of the Timoshenko-Ehrenfest beam theory to plates was given by Uflyand and Mindlin in the years 1948-1951.The importance of these theories stems from the fact that beams and plates are indispensable, and are often occurring elements of every civil, mechanical, ocean, and aerospace structure.Despite a long history and many papers, there is not a single book that summarizes these two celebrated theories. This book is dedicated to closing the existing gap within the literature. It also deals extensively with several controversial topics, namely those of priority, the so-called 'second spectrum' shear coefficient, and other issues, and shows vividly that the above beam and plate theories are unnecessarily overcomplicated.In the spirit of Einstein's dictum, 'Everything should be made as simple as possible but not simpler,' this book works to clarify both the Timoshenko-Ehrenfest beam and Uflyand-Mindlin plate theories, and seeks to articulate everything in the simplest possible language, including their numerous applications.This book is addressed to graduate students, practicing engineers, researchers in their early career, and active scientists who may want to have a different look at the above theories, as well as readers at all levels of their academic or scientific career who want to know the history of the subject. The Timoshenko-Ehrenfest Beam and Uflyand-Mindlin Plate Theories are the key reference works in the study of stocky beams and thick plates that should be given their due and remain important for generations to come, since classical Bernoulli-Euler beam and Kirchhoff-Love theories are applicable for slender beams and thin plates, respectively.Related Link(s)
