Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Machine Design, Vol. 2 The matter presented on the following pages is confined to such subjects as the designer must deal with daily. Equations and formulas are put into such a form as to afford a. Ready means of application to problems under consideration. Numerical examples and data from practice illustrating principles are introduced wher ever it seems that a clear understanding can be brought about in this way. The data thus presented have been gathered from numerous sources during the last fifteen years. That coming from modern practice is always given the preference, however, except where the older matter is undoubtedly the most valuable. When ever possible, the results of practice or experiments as presented by some engineer or experimenter which fairly well represent the general experience along their lines are given in preference to abstract statements. This is believed to be the most satisfactory method, since it affords a means of studying all the facts incidental to the particular case, in addition to furnishing information fully as well as abstract statements. The publications of engineering societies and engineering journals have been freely consulted. Much kindness has been shown by the representatives of engineering and manufacturing concerns, who have invariably been kind in answering inquiries, and many of them have furnished valuable data. Whenever possible, credit for such information is given in connection with the informa tion itself, but much of it was of such a nature as to make it im possible to separate it from general statements.
