Art Conservation
Conservators and other museum professionals face a large number of issues in their work which involve the mechanical behavior of materials. These include questions on craquelure, restoration of physically damaged objects, the risks of art in transport, or the selection of adhesives. However, when it comes to science, conservation training programs and museum studies curricula focus mostly on chemistry. This book fills this important gap in conservation training. It is the first such book written specifically for the conservation community and the professional with little or no background in (mechanical) engineering. It provides an introduction to the basics of mechanical properties and behav...

It introduces the basics of mechanical properties and behavior of materials and objects with examples and exercises based on conservation practice. More complex issues of mechanical loading and advanced solutions are also introduced.

It considers the concepts of originality and original appearance, and how people see and perceive objects, looking in particular at the results of the relatively new technology of eye-tracking. Wei then moves on ...
