Description: Formulas For Stress & Strain 3rd Edition Dated 1954 Raymond J Roark - This came from the Robert B Price Estate, has great provenance. McGraw-Hill Book Company. Fine clean complete condition - see detailed photos. Roark's Formulas for Stress and Strain is a mechanical engineering design book written by Richard G. Budynas and Ali M. Sadegh. It was first published in 1938 and the most current ninth edition was published in March 2020.SubjectsThe book covers various subjects, including bearing and shear stress, experimental stress analysis, stress concentrations, material behavior, and stress and strain measurement. It also features expanded tables and cases, improved notations and figures within the tables, consistent table and equation numbering, and verification of correction factors. The formulas are organized into tables in a hierarchical format: chapter, table, case, subcase, and each case and subcase is accompanied by diagrams. The main topics of the book include: • The behavior of bodies under stress • Analytical, numerical, and experimental methods • Tension, compression, shear, and combined stress • Beams and curved beams • Torsion, flat plates, and columns • Shells of revolution, pressure vessels, and pipes • Bodies under direct pressure and shear stress • Elastic stability • Dynamic and temperature stresses • Stress concentration • Fatigue and fracture • Stresses in fasteners and joints • Composite materials and solid biomechanics Robert Price (7 July 1929 – 3 December 2008) was an American electrical engineer, known best for his research in spread spectrum and radar technology.Price was born in West Chester, Pennsylvania. He majored in physics at Princeton University (1950) and then received his Sc.D. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1953). While working in the MIT Lincoln Laboratories, he was the co-creator of the Rake receiver, together with Paul Green. The Rake receiver has been described as "historically the most important adaptive receiver for fading multipath channels." They also supervised its deployment in a first-ever spread-spectrum system, the Lincoln F9C (1950).Price and Green also attempted to bounce radar waves off the planet Venus (1958). With Gordon Pettengill, the two of them worked out a theory of range-Doppler mapping that was used on the Magellan probe mapping of Venus' surface 20 years later.In 1965 he left the Lincoln Laboratory to join the Sperry Research Center in Sudbury, Massachusetts. He later worked at M/A-COM Government Systems and at Raytheon.Price was elected to the National Academy of Engineering (1985). He was a Life Fellow of the IEEE.
