A Study of the Deterioration of Nickel Spark-Plug Electrodes in Service (Classic Reprint)

Book Description
Excerpt from A Study of the Deterioration of Nickel Spark-Plug Electrodes in Service The nickel electrodes in which the deterioration was studied were taken from spark plugs in which the electrodes are arranged as a central one with the ground or Side electrode attached firmly at both ends to the Shell of the plug. In some of the plugs two side electrodes were used, one on each side of the central one. Although both electrodes were found to have deteriorated to some extent, the attack of the central one was quite negligible as com pared to that of the side ones. These latter wires had developed in service transverse cracks which in many cases were as Sharp and definite as a knife cut. After a separation occurred, the breach widened by loss of material from the ends of the fractured wires until a gap of as much as 1 cm often resulted. Fig. 2 Shows the appearance of some of the Side electrodes in different stages of deterioration. In Fig. 3 is shown the appearance of the surface of the side electrodes after removal of the carbonaceous deposit which usually covers them. The surface is roughened by a Series of parallel transverse cracks; none of these, however, has pene trated deeply enough to cause a break of the wire. In general, these transverse cracks occur more frequently on the Side of the electrode on which most of the Sparking occurs - that is, the one facing the central electrode - than on the farther side. The central electrode shows no appreciable change other than a Slight roughening of the tip. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
This newly reissued debut book in the Rutgers University Press Classics Imprint is the story of the search for a rocket propellant which could be trusted to take man into space. This search was a hazardous enterprise carried out by rival labs who worked against the known laws of nature, with no guarantee of success or safety. Acclaimed scientist and sci-fi author John Drury Clark writes with irreverent and eyewitness immediacy about the development of the explosive fuels strong enough to negate the relentless restraints of gravity. The resulting volume is as much a memoir as a work of history, sharing a behind-the-scenes view of an enterprise which eventually took men to the moon, missiles to the planets, and satellites to outer space. A classic work in the history of science, and described as “a good book on rocket stuff…that’s a really fun one” by SpaceX founder Elon Musk, readers will want to get their hands on this influential classic, available for the first time in decades.

Blindsight
Author: Peter Watts
Publisher: Macmillan
ISBN: 1429955198
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 388
Book Description
Hugo and Shirley Jackson award-winning Peter Watts stands on the cutting edge of hard SF with his acclaimed novel, Blindsight Two months since the stars fell... Two months of silence, while a world held its breath. Now some half-derelict space probe, sparking fitfully past Neptune's orbit, hears a whisper from the edge of the solar system: a faint signal sweeping the cosmos like a lighthouse beam. Whatever's out there isn't talking to us. It's talking to some distant star, perhaps. Or perhaps to something closer, something en route. So who do you send to force introductions with unknown and unknowable alien intellect that doesn't wish to be met? You send a linguist with multiple personalities, her brain surgically partitioned into separate, sentient processing cores. You send a biologist so radically interfaced with machinery that he sees x-rays and tastes ultrasound. You send a pacifist warrior in the faint hope she won't be needed. You send a monster to command them all, an extinct hominid predator once called vampire, recalled from the grave with the voodoo of recombinant genetics and the blood of sociopaths. And you send a synthesist—an informational topologist with half his mind gone—as an interface between here and there. Pray they can be trusted with the fate of a world. They may be more alien than the thing they've been sent to find. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
