It is desirable to be able to describe an automobile mathematically
because of the large number of variables which affect automobiles'
handling characteristics and of the high cost of building prototypes.
A mathematical analysis facilitates the construction of a
few prototypes whose configurations look most promising.
Equations of motion were...
The purpose of this work was to design a system for measuring
the velocity of a powder actuated fastener or drivepin during penetration.
This system would provide a tool for further investigation
into drivepin penetration characteristics. The main characteristic
of interest is the instantaneous acceleration from which the forces
on...
