Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Woods, Vol. 5: Exhibited by Actual Specimens and With Copious Explanatory Text; Representing Twenty-Five Species by Twenty-Five Sets of Sections The work is the outgrowth of one, of somewhat similar plan, proposed by my father some years since, but which he did not carry into effect. Its design is primarily and principally to show, in as compact and perfect a manner as possible, authentic specimens of our American woods, both native and introduced. For that end three sections, respectively transverse, radial and tangential to the grain (see Glossary), are made of each timber, sufficiently thin to allow in a measure the transmission of light, and securely mounted in well made frames. The three planes above mentioned show the grain from all sides, so to speak, no plane being possible but that would be either one of them or a combination of them. The difficulty, however, of cutting a great number of sections exactly on those planes is obvious, so let it be under stood that the terms, transverse, radial and tangential, are, in many cases, only approximately exact in their application.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chemistry of Wood, Vol. 5: The Results of Analysis of Some American Woods The results obtained from the analysis of the eight woods are given in Table 1. In the analytical work, which followed the methods described by the former investigators, all samples except incense cedar and mesquite were run in duplicate. The results tabulated are the average of the two determinations. The data relative to redwood are not exactly comparable with the results obtained on the other species shown in Table 1, as the sapwood showed decay, and the heartwood only could be analyzed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chock-full of peculiar puzzles, mind-bending mythbusters, and quirky questions, the fifth pop science book in the bestselling Science of Why series is perfect for anyone curious about the weird and wondrous world we live in. Have you ever wondered if octopuses are from outer space? What Mexican jumping beans are? Or if banana peels are really slippery? If questions like these are keeping you up at night, you can rest easy. Bestselling author Jay Ingram is here to answer all the whimsical and whacky wonderings that have baffled people since the dawn of time. From our bodies to our pets (and other beasts) to the natural world around us, Jay tackles science topics big and small, such as: Did dinosaurs sit on their eggs? What is our funny bone? Is there a specific muscle that makes dogs cute? Because who hasn’t pondered whether plants have feelings? Or if Robin Hood was a real person? Or what humans will look like in the future? Teeming with amusing answers to bemusing questions—and handy and hilarious illustrations—this latest volume separates fact from fiction, lesson from legend, and myth from marvel. Endlessly illuminating and entertaining, The Science of Why, Volume 5 is five times the fun for new and old readers of the series.

Download or read book Modern Drying Technology Volume 5 written by Evangelos Tsotsas and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This five-volume series provides a comprehensive overview of all important aspects of modern drying technology, concentrating on the transfer of cutting-edge research results to industrial use. Volume 5 is dedicated to process intensification by hybrid processes that combine convective or contact heat transfer with microwaves, ultrasound or radiation. Process intensification by more efficient choice, distribution, and flow of the drying medium - such as impinging jet drying, pulse combustion drying, superheated steam drying, drying in specially designed spouted beds - are thoroughly discussed. Moreover, methods that favorably affect the process by changing the structure of the drying product, e.g. foaming, electroporation, are treated. Emphasis is placed on drying, including freeze-drying, of sensitive materials such as foods, biomaterials and pharmaceuticals.
