Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the structural safety of wooden airplanes, also known as "heavier-than-air machines," a topic of growing interest in the early 20th century. While aviators at the time prioritized the thrill of human flight, the author argues that engineers must focus on designing sa…fe and reliable aircraft structures, particularly the wooden struts used in alighting gear and trusses between planes. The book presents the results of extensive experiments on spruce columns, commonly used in airplane construction, to determine their ultimate strength and behavior under various loading conditions. The author's findings challenge existing formulas and provide valuable insights for designing wooden airplane struts. By carefully analyzing the mechanical properties of wood, this book contributes to the advancement of aviation engineering and lays the groundwork for safer and more efficient aircraft designs.
