Publisher's Synopsis
The Principles of Mechanism and Machinery of Transmission is a comprehensive book written by William Fairbairn. It is a detailed study of the principles of mechanics and machinery used in industrial applications. The book covers a wide range of topics including the principles of motion, force, and power, the design and construction of machinery, and the transmission of power through different mechanisms.The book is divided into several chapters, each covering a specific topic related to mechanics and machinery. The first chapter introduces the basics of mechanics, including the laws of motion and the principles of force and power. The following chapters cover topics such as the design and construction of machinery, the different types of mechanisms used in industrial applications, and the transmission of power through gears, belts, and other mechanisms.Throughout the book, Fairbairn provides detailed explanations and illustrations to help readers understand the principles of mechanics and machinery. He also includes numerous examples of industrial applications to demonstrate how these principles are used in practice.Overall, The Principles of Mechanism and Machinery of Transmission is an essential reference for anyone interested in the design and construction of machinery, or in the principles of mechanics and motion. It is a valuable resource for engineers, mechanics, and anyone involved in the manufacturing or operation of industrial machinery.Comprising The Principles Of Mechanism, Wheels And Pulleys, Strength And Proportions Of Shafts, Couplings For Shafts And Engaging And Disengaging Gear.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
