Excerpt from The Transition Curve or Curve of Adjustment as Applied to the Alignment of Railroads
That of joining a tangent with a circular curve, by means of the transition curve, is a special case where one of the radii becomes infinitely great. Some of the recent spirals, adopted as curves of adjustment in railroad location, easily develop from the equations of the cubic parabola by making the proper substitutions in them.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive treatise on the transition curve, a specialized curve used in railroad engineering to connect circular curves of different radii or a tangent to a circular curve. Historically, this curve was developed in the mid-19th century as a result of the increasing speeds of steam locomotives, which required a smoother transition between curves to reduce centrifugal force. The book presents a thorough mathematical analysis of the transition curve, covering its geometry, construction, and application. It also discusses the historical context and theoretical foundations of the curve, providing engineers with a deeper understanding of its significance. With its in-depth exploration of the essential principles and practical applications of the transition curve, this book is essential reading for railroad engineers and anyone interested in the history and mathematics of engineering. 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. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781331823582_0
