Balances: Instruments, Manufacturers, History

Balances: Instruments, Manufacturers, History by Erich Robens , Shanath Amarasiri A. Jayaweera , Susanne Kiefer
English | PDF (True) | 2014 | 743 Pages | ISBN : 3642364462 | 42 MB

The book deals mainly with direct mass determination by means of a conventional balances. It covers the history of the balance from the beginnings in Egypt earlier than 3000 BC to recent developments. All balance types are described with emphasis on scientific balances. Methods of indirect mass determination, which are applied to very light objects like molecules and the basic particles of matter and celestial bodies, are included. As additional guidance, today’s manufacturers are listed and the profile of important companies is reviewed.

Arnold Sommerfeld: Science, Life and Turbulent Times 1868-1951 by Michael Eckert
English | PDF (True) | 2013 | 477 Pages | ISBN : 1461474604 | 5.1 MB

The subject of the book is a biography of the theoretical physicist Arnold Sommerfeld (1868-1951). Although Sommerfeld is famous as a quantum theorist for the elaboration of the semi-classical atomic theory (Bohr-Sommerfeld model, Sommerfeld's fine-structure constant), his role in the history of modern physics is not confined to atoms and quanta.

Cobalt Blues: The Story of Leonard Grimmett, the Man Behind the First Cobalt-60 Unit in the United States by Peter R. Almond
English | PDF (True) | 2013 | 163 Pages | ISBN : 1461449235 | 4.6 MB

For the last half of the 20th century cobalt-60 units were the mainstay of radiation treatments for cancer. This book describes the development of the first cobalt -60 unit in the United States and the man behind it, Leonard Grimmett. Conceptually conceived before World War II it only became possible because of the development of nuclear reactors during the war. The initial idea was to replace the radium in the contemporary units of the time with cobalt-60, but with the realization that the reactors could produce much more cobalt-60 than originally thought the design of the cobalt-60 unit was drastically changed to take advantage that the application of the inverse square law to cancer radiation treatments would make.

Industrial Vision Systems with Raspberry Pi: Build and Design Vision products Using Python and OpenCV
English | 2024 | ASIN: B0CMGJ6HVT | 346 pages | PDF | 23.08 MB

Today’s industries are faced with a growing demand for vision systems due to their non-invasive characteristics in inspecting product quality. These systems identify surface defects and faults, and verify components’ orientation and their measurements, etc. This book explores the vision techniques needed to design and develop your own industrial vision system with the help of Raspberry Pi.

Tides in Astronomy and Astrophysics by Jean Souchay, Stéphane Mathis, Tadashi Tokieda
English | PDF (True) | 2013 | 384 Pages | ISBN : 3642329608 | 13 MB

Based on the lecture notes of a school titled ‘Tides in Astronomy and Astrophysics’ that brought together students and researchers, this book focuses on the fundamental theories of tides at different scales of the universe—from tiny satellites to whole galaxies—and on the most recent developments. It also attempts to place the study of tides in a historical perspective.Starting with a general tutorial on tides, the theme of tides is approached in 9 chapters from many directions. They allow non-experts to pick up a physical intuition and a sense of orders of magnitude in the theory of tides. These carefully prepared lecture notes by leaders in the field include many illustrative figures and drawings. Some even offer a variety of simple back-of the-envelope problems.

Unravelling the Mystery of the Atomic Nucleus: A Sixty Year Journey 1896 — 1956 by Bernard Fernandez , Georges Ripka
English | PDF (True) | 2013 | 541 Pages | ISBN : 1461441803 | 4.5 MB

Unravelling the Mystery of the Atomic Nucleus is a history of atomic and nuclear physics. It begins in 1896 with the discovery of radioactivity, which leads to the discovery of the nucleus at the center of the atom. It follows the experimental discoveries and the theoretical developments up to the end of the Fifties.
