Download or read book History of the Space Shuttle Volume Two written by T. A. Heppenheimer and published by Smithsonian Institution. This book was released on 2014-09-30 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Basing his work on virtually untapped NASA archives, T. A. Heppenheimer has produced the second volume of his definitive history of the space shuttle. Volume Two traces the development of the shuttle through a decade of engineering setbacks and breakthroughs, program-management challenges, and political strategizing, culminating in the first launch in April 1981. The focus is on the engineering challenges—propulsion, thermal protection, electronics, onboard systems—and the author covers in depth the alternative vehicles developed by the U.S. Air Force and European countries. The first launch entailed a monumental amount of planning and preparation that Heppenheimer explains in detail.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential reference for those interested in the history of advanced aviation, special aircraft, and secret projects. Titles, authors, report numbers, and abstracts are given for more than 2200 unclassified and unrestricted technical reports and papers published from September 1946 to December 1996 by NASA Dryden Flight Research Center and its predecessor organizations. These technical reports and papers describe and give the results of 50 years of flight research performed by the NACA and NASA, from the X-1 and other early X-airplanes, to the X-15, Space Shuttle, X-29 Forward Swept Wing, and X-31 aircraft. Some of the other research airplanes tested were the D-558, phase 1 and 2; M-2, HL-10 and X-24 lifting bodies; Digital Fly-By-Wire and Supercritical Wing F-8; XB-70; YF-12; AFTI F-111 TACT and MAW; F-15 HiDEC; F-18 High Alpha Research Vehicle, and F-18 Systems Research Aircraft.

Download or read book Guide to Air Force Historical Literature 1943 1983 written by Kenneth Schaffel and published by Nimble Books. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historical bibliographies are among the strongest-selling titles in Nimble Books' public domain list for the simple reason that they are an excellent value for money. There is no better way to be confident that you know almost everything there is to know about a given body of historical literature. This reproduction, originally published by the Office of Air Force History of the United States Air Force in 1985, is according to the Foreword by Richard H. Kohn, then Air Force Historian, "a comprehensive listing of histories, monographs, chronologies, and special studies issued by the Office of Air Force History and historical offices throughout the Air Force. It excludes the periodic (monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, annual) command and unit histories. The primary purpose of the Guide is to bring together all of the writings of the Air Force History Program in one convenient bibliography.""We believe this is a valuable resource for commanders and staffs, for it includes a wide variety of studies on how the Air Force carried out planning, operations, research, logistical activities and a host of other important operational and support functions in the past. These studies address a wide variety of issues and problems. They can provide insight into 'why things are the way they are, ' as well as what worked and what did not, and the reasons why. Such information is invaluable to those responsible for today's plans and operations. At the very least, used wisely, the historical information in these studies will help Air Force people make informed decisions and avoid repeating past mistakes."Other bibliographies from Nimble Books include: Annotated Bibliography of the Space Shuttle (Two Volumes)] Fifty Years of Flight Research: An Annotated Bibliography of Technical Publications of NASA Dryden Flight Research Center, 1946-1996Submarine Warfare in the 20th and 21st Centuries - A BibliographyHistorical Bibliography of Sea Mine WarfareLight Infantry Forces: A Bibliography- Guide to Captured German Documents Torpedoes: A List of References in the New York Public Library

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This three-volume publication brings together a large mass of anthropometric data which define the physical size, mass distribution properties, and dynamic capabilities of U.S. and selected foreign adult populations. Aimed specifically to. meet the needs of design engineers engaged in the design and execution of clothing, equipment, and workspaces for the NASA Space Shuttle Program, the book is also. designed to be of use to human engineers in a wide variety of fields. It is not only a comprehensive source of specific anthropometric information but also a guide to the effective applications of such data. Subjects covered in Volume I include physical changes in the zero-g environment, variability in body size, mass distribution properties of the human body, arm and leg reach, joint motion, strength, sizing and design of. clothing and workspaces, and statistical guidelines. Material presented includes such unpublished anthropometric data measured under one-g and zero-g conditions. Also included are 1985 body size projections and actual cutouts of quarter-scale two-dimensional manikins for use by designers. Volume II contains data resulting from surveys of 61 military and civilian populations of both sexes from the U.S., Europe, and Asia. Some 295 measured variables are defined and illustrated. Volume III is an annotated bibliography covering a broad spectrum of topics relevant to applied physical anthropology with emphasis on anthropometry and its applications in sizing and design.
