Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a practical guide for sailors, aiming to equip them with a scientific understanding of the principles of mechanics. Written in a straightforward and accessible style, it was intended for young men who wished to advance their professional skills through independent study. The author recognized the lack of existing textbooks that catered specifically to the needs of sailors and sought to fill this gap by explaining the principles underlying the mechanical devices commonly used at sea. The book covers fundamental concepts like the resolution and composition of forces, and examines the six mechanical powers ââ â the lever, the wheel and axle, the pulley, the inclined plane, the wedge, and the screw. The text goes beyond theoretical explanations, delving into the practical applications of these principles in real-world maritime scenarios. The author explores specific situations faced by sailors, such as rigging derricks, calculating the strain on ropes and spars, and understanding the dynamics of sails and ships in motion. The book's insights into the mechanics of sailing vessels, as well as its focus on the practical application of scientific principles, made it an invaluable resource for mariners seeking to improve their knowledge and understanding of their craft. 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 réf. du vendeur 9781332180301_0
