书目名称 | Gears | 副标题 | Volume 3: A Concise | 编辑 | Vincenzo Vullo | 视频video | | 概述 | The first book to provide a concise but yet complete history of gears.Sheds new light on the historical development of machine science.Addresses historians of science and engineers alike | 丛书名称 | Springer Series in Solid and Structural Mechanics | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | This book provides a compact history of gears, by summarizing the main stages of their development and the corresponding gradual acquisition of engineering expertise, from the antiquity to the Renaissance and the twentieth century. This brief history makes no claim to be exhaustive, since the topic is so extensive, complex and fascinating that it deserves an entire encyclopedia. Despite its brevity, the book debunks a number of popular misconceptions, such as the belief that the first literary description of a gear was supplied by Aristotle. It disproves not only this myth, but also other peremptory statements and/or axiomatic assumptions that have no basis in written documents, archaeological findings or other factual evidence. The book is chiefly intended for students and lecturers, historians of science and scientists, and all those who want to learn about the genesis and evolution of this topic. | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | 关键词 | historical development of gears; history of machine science; history of engineering; material strength | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-40164-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-40166-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-40164-1Series ISSN 2195-3511 Series E-ISSN 2195-352X | issn_series | 2195-3511 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020 |
