Experiments On The Strength Of Iron Rails At Different Temperatures (1869)

By Christer Peter Sandberg

Book Overview

Experiments On The Strength Of Iron Rails At Different Temperatures is a book written by Christer Peter Sandberg in 1869. The book is a detailed account of the author's experiments on the strength of iron rails under different temperature conditions. Sandberg, who was a Swedish engineer, conducted these experiments to determine the effects of temperature on the strength of iron rails, which were widely used in railway tracks during that time.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which deals with a different aspect of the experiments. Sandberg begins by explaining the purpose of his experiments and the methodology he used. He then proceeds to describe the apparatus he used to conduct the experiments and the various tests he performed on the iron rails.Sandberg also discusses the different temperatures at which the experiments were conducted and the results of each test. He provides detailed data on the strength of the iron rails at different temperatures, as well as the changes in their physical properties during the experiments.The book concludes with a summary of Sandberg's findings and their implications for the use of iron rails in railway tracks. Sandberg's experiments were groundbreaking in their time and contributed significantly to the development of railway technology.Overall, Experiments On The Strength Of Iron Rails At Different Temperatures is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of railway technology or the science of materials testing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
