Synopsis

An Outline For Work In Experimental Engineering In The Engineering Department Of The University Of Virginia (1919) is a comprehensive guidebook written by Jared Stout Lapham. The book provides a detailed outline of the experimental engineering work that was conducted at the University of Virginia's Engineering Department during the early 20th century.The book covers various aspects of experimental engineering, including the design and construction of experimental equipment, the collection and analysis of data, and the interpretation of experimental results. It also includes detailed instructions on how to conduct experiments in various fields of engineering, such as mechanics, thermodynamics, and electrical engineering.The author, Jared Stout Lapham, was a professor of engineering at the University of Virginia and was heavily involved in the development of the university's experimental engineering program. His expertise and experience are evident throughout the book, making it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the field of experimental engineering.Overall, An Outline For Work In Experimental Engineering In The Engineering Department Of The University Of Virginia (1919) is a well-written and informative guidebook that provides a detailed overview of the experimental engineering work conducted at the University of Virginia during the early 20th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of engineering education and the development of experimental engineering as a field of study.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Consider that a college education costs you several thousand dollars, which you might earn by devoting the same time to some remunerative occupation and this regardless of the pocket from which your expenses come. The expenditure will prove an extravagant waste or a money-and-satisfaction-producing investment according to your intention to get the least or the most out of the opportunities purchased by it. The best value can be obtained from these courses by following the suggestions given below: (1) Read the references for each group of tests before undertaking the work. They are the standards of scientific and professional practice. When the work is finished, read them again. (2) Use this laboratory outline as a guide in fitting standard practice to the conditions and equipment of the laboratory. The instructions may be freely modified. (3) Secure, check and record the items of data in the laboratory with careful accuracy, and with indifference as to how they may affect the final result. (4) Check every step in the laboratory, and every calculation so that you may be prepared to affirm that the facts presented are facts, (5) Present these facts in a report, designed with engineering skill, to convey information with the minimum of mental friction to the reader. (6) Buy and use a slide rule and a typewriter. They have become the engineers indispensable tools. EXPLANATORY NOTE. The subject-matter for these courses will be found in the assigned references. The descriptive paragraphs which follow are intended to be supplementary, and are not in themselves either complete or consecutive.
