Download or read book Galloping Wind written by Zoltan Malocsay and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-12-14 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Indians called him "Wind-That-Gallops, a gust of wind that wears a horse's skin." Mustangers called him "Wild Shadow" for the way he followed them stealthily, learning all their tricks. To young Rube Tucker, he was the prize of a lifetime, perhaps the last Spanish-Arabian still running wild in the Old West. Prepare to be swept away by this romantic, hard-action adventure about the glory days of professional mustanging in the American West. Millions thrilled to the Boy's LIfe short story, then to the Putnam novel and then the Dell paperback-all many years apart-but this is the author's version, the whole story, restored and revised for a new audience and it is 23% longer. Galloping Wind keeps circling back, generation after generation, because it truly earns its spurs.

Download or read book Introduction to Aeroelasticity written by Harijono Djojodihardjo and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-09-03 with total page 1080 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook is intended as a core text for courses on aeroelasticity or aero-elasto-mechanics for senior undergraduate/graduate programs in aerospace and mechanical engineering. The book focuses on the basic understanding of the concepts required in learning about aeroelasticity, from observation, reasoning, and understanding fundamental physical principles. Fundamental and simple mathematics will be introduced to describe the features of aeroelastic problems, and to devise simple concurrent physical and mathematical modeling. It will be accompanied by the introduction and understandings of the mechanisms that create the interactions that generate the aeroelastic phenomena considered. The students will also be led to the relation between observed phenomena, assumptions that may have to be adopted to arrive at physical and mathematical modelling, interpreting and verifying the results, and the accompanied limitations, uncertainties and inaccuracies. The students will also be introduced to combine engineering problem solving attitude and determination with simple mechanics problem-solving skills that coexist harmoniously with a useful mechanical intuition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book provides a comprehensive survey on the governing phenomena of cable vibration, both associated with direct action of wind and rain: buffeting, vortex-shedding, wake effects, rain-wind vibration; and resulting from the indirect excitation through anchorage oscillation: external and parametric excitation. Methodologies for assessment of the effects of those phenomena are presented and illustrated by practical examples. Control of cable vibrations is then discussed and state-of-art results on the design of passive control devices are presented.
