EBOOK - Mechanisms and Mechanical devices sourcebook 5th (Neil Sclater)
This is the fifth edition of a one-of-a-kind engineering reference book covering the past, present, and future of mechanisms and mechanical devices. It includes clear illustrations and straightforward descriptions of specific subjects rather than the theory and mathematics found in most engineering textbooks. You will find that this book contains hundreds of detailed line drawings that will hold your interest regardless of your background in mechanical engineering. The text accompanying the illustrations is intended to help you to understand the basic concepts of subjects that may or may not be familiar to you.
You will find drawings and illustrations that are simply interesting and informative and perhaps others that could spur your creativity and prompt you to recycle them into your new designs or redesigns. They may offer solutions you had not previously considered because they were not visible inside contemporary products unless the product is disassembled. Solid state electronics and computer circuitry have displaced many earlier mechanical solutions, no doubt improving product reliability and efficiency while reducing their price.
Nevertheless, many of those displaced mechanical components have lives of their own and may very well turn up in other products in different form performing different functions after undergoing dimensional and material transformations. Classical, proven mechanisms and mechanical devices may seem to disappear only to reappear in other forms and applications. Anyone who believes that all mechanisms will be replaced by electronics need only examine the sophistication of the latest self-winding mechanical watches, digital cameras, gyro-stabilized vehicles, and navigational systems.
This book illustrates the ongoing importance of classical mechanical devices as well as the latest mechatronic devices formed by the merger between mechanics and electronics.
It is a must addition to your personal technical library, and it offers you a satisfying way to “get up to speed” on new subjects or those you may have studied in the past but have now faded from your memory. Moreover, it is hoped that this book will encourage you to refresh your knowledge of these and other topics that interest you by accessing the many related Web sites on the Internet.
