Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book on engineering and design is an exploration of the principles associated with the structural integrity, visual appeal, and mechanical efficiency of machines. At a time when the Industrial Revolution was rapidly evolving, these principles were relatively new and not fully understood. The author argues that a machine's functional beauty is dependent on proportions that inherently contribute to its strength. He illustrates this concept through the examination of steam engine designs and their components, such as beams, columns, and pedestals. Throughout the book, he draws upon the architectural principles of the time, particularly those of the ancient Greeks. The author goes on to explore the balance between structural integrity and visual appeal, arguing that one should never be sacrificed for the other. He also points out that the design principles found in nature�"particularly regarding the dissipation of force�"can be applied to machines, leading to beautiful and functional designs. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781330515075_0
