Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate world of shaping materials for mechanical uses, offering a comprehensive guide to the processes employed in the transformation of raw materials into finished products. The author, drawing upon extensive experience in engineering instruction, shipyard inspections, and visits to manufacturing plants, provides a detailed and accessible exploration of metalworking techniques. The book's scope is vast, encompassing the properties of essential materials like iron, steel, copper, and wood, and examining the methods used to produce them. From the intricacies of smelting to the practicalities of forging and machining, the book presents a historical perspective on these processes, revealing how they evolved from traditional methods to the sophisticated techniques employed in the early 20th century. The author emphasizes the importance of understanding the properties of materials and the forces that shape them, shedding light on the crucial interplay between engineering principles, skilled craftsmanship, and technological advancements. This book offers a unique window into the evolution of industrial practices and the ever-present quest to shape materials for increasingly complex and demanding applications. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Hardcover. Condición: New. The main focus of the book is the geological and geophysical interpretation of sedimentary basins along the South, Central and North Atlantic conjugate margins, but concepts derived from physical models, outcrop analogues and present-day margins are also discussed in some chapters. There is an encompassing description of several conjugate margins worldwide, based on recent geophysical and geological datasets. An overview of important aspects related to the geodynamic development and petroleum geology of Atlantic-type sedimentary basins is also included. Several chapters analyse genetic mechanisms and break-up processes associated with rift-phase structures and salt tectonics, providing a full description of conjugate margin basins based on deep seismic profiles and potential field methods.
