Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. As new condition maroon boards/brown spine/gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes List of Illustrations; Introduction by Byron Hollinshead; Acknowledgments; Illustration Credits; and A Note About the Editor. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs. "Twenty distinguished American historians vividly re-imagine twenty events of great drama and significance in our country's past. "What is the scene or incident in American history that you would like to have witnessed - and why?" This is the thought-provoking question that editor Byron Holingshead posed to twenty of our finest interpreters of American history with the invitation to write a personal essay answering it. The result is I Wish I'd Been There, a book that trains a lens on crucial moments of our past and brings them to vivid life. With these peerless scholars as their guides, readers will be transported to the Salem witch trials, the Lewis and Clark expedition, the raid on Harpers Ferry, the assissination of Abraham Lincoln, the Scopes "monkey trial," the beginnings of the Vietnam War, the voting rights march to Selma, and other turning points of our national drama. Contributors include Mary Beth Norton, Joseph Ellis, Jay Winik, Carol Berkin, Kevin Baker, Robert Cowley, Carolyn Gilman, Geoffrey Ward, Robert Dallek, and William Leuchtenburg, among other luminaries of the historical profession. I Wish I'd Been There is a marvelous concept, wonderfully and imaginatively executed. The result is an American pageant of character and event that will attract and delight readers of history." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex mathematical modeling of a running skyline system, a type of cable logging method. The author presents a detailed analysis of the forces and displacements at play when a log load is dragged along the ground by the skyline, which significantly influences the system's load-carrying capability. By extending previous research on running skylines, this book provides a more realistic understanding of the system's behavior. The mathematical models and solution procedures outlined in this book empower logging engineers with a valuable tool to optimize running skyline operations, ensuring efficient and safe timber harvesting while minimizing environmental impact.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a method for determining the load capacity of running or standing skyline cable systems, essential for planning purposes in logging operations. It presents mathematical expressions that condense the complex relationship between tensions, loads, and geometries into a form that can be programmed onto pocket-sized calculators. The author approximates the catenary description of cable systems with simpler assumptions, introducing some error in the results. However, comparisons with other methods show the calculator results to be useful for a wide range of situations. By using a programmable calculator, logging engineers can easily determine the relationships between system tensions, loads, and geometries, making advance planning of logging activities more accessible and practical.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book details the mathematical modeling of logging skylines, used to transport timber in areas where road systems are impractical. Focused on determining load-carrying capacity, the book provides an iterative technique to solve complex hyperbolic functions and transcendental equations without relying on common numerical methods that are prone to divergence. The iterative procedure is comprehensive, encompassing the geometry, tension, and payload of the skyline, ensuring convergence to the correct solution within a few iterations. This method efficiently handles the addition of lines and line segments, making it adaptable to various skyline configurations. The book's insights advance the field of skyline engineering, providing a valuable tool for designers to establish mechanical and economic feasibility of logging skylines.
