Tribological Design of Machine Elements
On previous occasions each Symposium has focused attention on a current and significant research topic, usually reflecting the interests of the Leeds or Lyon research groups, however this time the main focus was on the vitally important subject of technology transfer, providing the 154 delegates from 21 countries with the rare opportunity to discuss the impact of their studies on machine design.
Early Baseball in New Orleans
In the 1800s, New Orleans' local economy evolved from rural-agrarian into urban-industrial. With this transformation came newfound leisure time, which birthed the concept of organized sport. Though first considered a game for children, baseball became New Orleans' most popular pastime, and by 1859, numerous baseball clubs had been established in the city. This book traces the development of baseball in New Orleans from its earliest recorded games in 1859 through the end of the 19th century, with a particular focus on the New Orleans Pelicans.
Bouncing Balls
""Bouncing Balls"" explores the fascinating science behind a seemingly simple action, revealing the complex interplay of physics at work. It examines how gravity, elasticity, and energy transfer dictate the behavior of bouncing balls, unlocking insights applicable to sports, engineering, and materials science. For example, understanding the coefficient of restitution helps explain why different balls bounce to varying heights. The book systematically unravels this complexity, starting with core concepts like kinetic and potential energy. It then delves into the role of gravity and air resistance, examining the material properties of various balls, from basketballs to tennis balls. High-speed video analysis and force sensors are used to measure key parameters. The book integrates theoretical explanations with real-world examples and experimental evidence, bridging the gap between abstract Physics concepts and tangible observations. It progresses from theoretical mechanics to experimental validation and pragmatic implications, making it valuable for students, sports enthusiasts, and educators alike.
Statistical Methods
The Preface Elucidates That The Text Is Designed For Degree Courses In India. However, I Imagine That It Could Play A Useful Role For Those In Britain. It Is Mainly Intended As An Introductory Text For Those Studying Social Sciences And Economics. Individuals From Other Disciplines Would, No Doubt, Still Find It Useful As A General Reference.The Chapters Are Well Written And Easy To Follow. An Appealing Feature Of The Book Is That Much Emphasis Is Placed On The Understanding And Application Of Statistical Methods. There Is Avoidance Of Excessive Presentation Of Formulae. For These Reasons Alone I Think That Students Will Find The Text Attractive. Each Chapter Finishes With A Series Of Well-Formulated Questions, Which Test The Readers' Understanding.The Two Chapters On Statistical Inference And Tests Of Significance Are Excellent.It Is A Comprehensive And Interesting Text, One That I Think Most Students Would Find Useful. Indeed, It Is An Useful Addition To My Library, Having Already Referred To It Often. The Statistician, London, Vol. 45, No. 3 (1996).
