PDF-(EBOOK)-Reinventing the Propeller: Aeronautical Specialty and the Triumph of the Modern

An international community of specialists reinvented the propeller during the Aeronautical Revolution a vibrant period of innovation in North America and Europe from World War I to the end of World War II They experienced both success and failure as they created competing designs that enabled increasingly sophisticated and modern commercial and military aircraft to climb quicker and cruise faster using less power Reinventing the Propeller nimbly moves from the minds of these inventors to their drawing boards workshops research and development facilities and factories and then shows us how their work performed in the air both commercially and militarily Reinventing the Propeller documents this story of a forgotten technology to reveal new perspectives on engineering research and development design and the multilayered social cultural financial commercial industrial and military infrastructure of aviation. .

This classic text analyzes the trajectories of aircraft, missiles, satellites, and spaceships subjected to uniform and central gravitational forces, aerodynamic forces, and thrust. Suitable for students and professionals in aerodynamic engineering, the treatment illustrates the wealth of related problems in applied mathematics and addresses their solutions in terms of vehicle design. The three-part approach begins with a survey of foundations that covers general principles of kinematics, dynamics, aerodynamics, and propulsion. Subsequent chapters examine quasi-steady flight over a flat earth with applications to aircraft powered by turbojet, turbofan, and ramjet engines flying at subsonic, transonic, and supersonic speeds. The final chapters explore nonsteady flight over a flat earth with applications to rocket vehicles operating in the hypervelocity domain. A helpful appendix with material on properties of the atmosphere concludes the text. “. . . a brilliant piece of scholarship . . . Mackowski’s book belongs in every space historian’s library. Seldom does one find in scholarly literature a book as easy and enjoyable to read as Testing the Limits.”—Air Power History “Maura Phillips Mackowski has filled a critically important gap in the literature of American aerospace history. . . . The author provides a compelling narrative overview of the development of aviation medicine in the United States. . . . Testing the Limits is an important and engrossing story, well told in very lively prose. Specialists and general readers alike will find it difficult to put down.”—The Journal of American History “...demonstrates outstanding scholarship in the exploration of the history of American military aviation medicine.”—Space Times The Red Rockets Glare is the first academic study on the birth of the Soviet space program and one of the first social histories of Soviet science. Based on many years of archival research, the book situates the birth of cosmic enthusiasm within the social and cultural upheavals of Russian and Soviet history. Asif A. Siddiqi frames the origins of Sputnik by bridging imagination with engineering seeing them not as dialectic, discrete, and sequential but as mutable, intertwined, and concurrent. Imagination and engineering not only fed each other but were also co-produced by key actors who maintained a delicate line between secret work on rockets (which interested the military) and public prognostications on the cosmos (which captivated the populace). Sputnik, he argues, was the outcome of both large-scale state imperatives to harness science and technology and populist phenomena that frequently owed little to the whims and needs of the state apparatus.
