Wings Press Early Farm Tractors
Book SynopsisProviding an interesting glimpse into the steam traction engines and internal combustion tractors that revolutionised the world of farming, this collection focuses on American tractors from the late 1850s to the beginning of the Great Depression. With farm journal advertisements—dating from 1909 through 1929—this account considers how something as ordinary and utilitarian as a tractor seems to have inherent standards of good design, correct proportion, and beauty. Intended for tractor enthusiasts, historians, artists, illustrators, students of industrial design, and graphic art lovers, this fascinating book recounts an important piece of history.Trade ReviewIn this unique book, Jim Harter, a gifted graphic artist and historian, has assembled a remarkable collection of images of these machines, drawn from either 20th-century advertising cuts or earlier engravings. Taking the reader up to the beginning of the Great Depression, these pictures, and accompanying text, document this historically important development, and some of its most prominent companies." —John H. White, Jr., Curator of Transportation 1958–1990, Smithsonian Institution"Jim Harter's exhaustive collection of tractor images can be appreciated on multiple levels, as the intersection of industrial design, advertising, and art. A treat for both the historian and the tractor enthusiast, it sheds welcome light on an under-appreciated art form." —Warren Stricker, director, Research Center Panhandle–Plains Historical Museum"If, as many have said, the United States is the bread basket of the world, it is the tractor that has made that possible. This quintessential farm machine is represented in this fine retrospective that focuses on tractors from the 1850s to the 1930s. . . . Harter has chosen to . . . illustrate this history with advertising line drawings, which show detail in clearer, sharper images than old photographs from the period can show. Tractor fans will appreciate this very complete, well-illustrated volume." —San Francisco Book Review (February 2013)

Purdue University Press Long Hard Road: The Lithium-Ion Battery and the
Book SynopsisLong Hard Road: The Lithium-Ion Battery and the Electric Car provides an inside look at the birth of the lithium-ion battery, from its origins in academic labs around the world to its transition to its new role as the future of automotive power. It chronicles the piece-by-piece development of the battery, from its early years when it was met by indifference from industry to its later emergence in Japan where it served in camcorders, laptops, and cell phones. The book is the first to provide a glimpse inside the Japanese corporate culture that turned the lithium-ion chemistry into a commercial product. It shows the intense race between two companies, Asahi Chemical and Sony Corporation, to develop a suitable anode. It also explains, for the first time, why one Japanese manufacturer had to build its first preproduction cells in a converted truck garage in Boston, Massachusetts.Building on that history, Long Hard Road then takes readers inside the auto industry to show how lithium-ion solved the problems of earlier battery chemistries and transformed the electric car into a viable competitor. Starting with the Henry Ford and Thomas Edison electric car of 1914, it chronicles a long list of automotive failures, then shows how a small California car converter called AC Propulsion laid the foundation for a revolution by packing its car with thousands of tiny lithium-ion cells. The book then takes readers inside the corporate board rooms of Detroit to show how mainstream automakers finally decided to adopt lithium-ion.Long Hard Road is unique in its telling of the lithium-ion tale, revealing that the battery chemistry was not the product of a single inventor, nor the dream of just three Nobel Prize winners, but rather was the culmination of dozens of scientific breakthroughs from many inventors whose work was united to create a product that ultimately changed the world.Table of Contents Preface Prologue: An Idea in the Air Timeline of Events Part I The Making of a Battery 1.

ISTE Ltd and John Wiley & Sons Inc Vehicular Networks: Models and Algorithms
Book SynopsisOver the last few years vehicular networks have been receiving a lot of attention from academia, industry, standardization bodies, and the various transportation agencies and departments of many governments around the world. It is envisaged in the next decade that the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) will become an essential part of our daily life. This book describes models and/or algorithms designed to investigate evolutionary solutions to overcome important issues such as congestion control, routing, clustering, interconnection with long-term evolution (LTE) and LTE advanced cellular networks, traffic signal control and analysis of performances through simulation tools and the generation of vehicular mobility traces for network simulations. It provides an up-to-date progress report on the most significant contributions carried out by the specialized research community in the various fields concerned, in terms of models and algorithms. The proposals and new directions explored by the authors are highly original, and a rather descriptive method has been chosen, which aims at drawing up complete states of the art as well as providing an overall presentation of the personal contributions brought by the authors and clearly illustrating the advantages and limitations as well as issues for future work.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Asymmetric Gearing
Book SynopsisThe history of gears with asymmetric teeth is not sufficiently recorded in modern gear literature, with some gear researchers concluding that asymmetric tooth gears were discovered just several decades ago. This book sheds light upon the origins and state of asymmetric gearing, referencing technical articles from the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries. As a practicing gear engineer with over 40 years' experience, author Alexander L. Kapelevich has successfully implemented asymmetric gears in a variety of custom gear transmissions. This book addresses all aspects of asymmetric gear development, including theoretical fundamentals; tooth geometry optimization; stress analysis and rating; design and production specifics; analytical and experimental comparison to the best symmetric gears; and application examples. Readers are encouraged to look beyond the status quo established by traditional gear design, and to apply principles of asymmetric gearing to actuaTrade Review"This book covers the development stages of asymmetric gear trains, progressing from theory through analysis, manufacturing, and final applications. The author shows the benefits of the asymmetric mesh and includes practical recommendations for gear fabrication. This material can be useful for new gearbox designs as well as for applications where higher gearbox torque capabilities are required within limited existing envelopes. Overall, this new work will offer helpful information for multiple generations of engineers."—Yuriy Gmirya, Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, a Lockheed Martin Company, USA"Alexander Kapelevich has written a treatise that is destined to be the classic work on asymmetric gearing. This book is comprehensive and gives engineers the tools they need to understand and design asymmetric gears, which have many advantages such as maximum power density, maximum efficiency, and minimum noise and vibration. It clearly explains the method of Direct Gear Design®, which is easy to understand for anyone familiar with involute gears. The many example gear sets and design charts give comprehensive design guidelines that show the way forward to advance state-of-the-art gear design."—Robert Errichello, GEARTECH, Montana, USA"An author of this book is well known as a researcher and implementor of asymmetric gears for over 30 years. His book Asymmetric Gearing reflects his experience in this area and covers virtually all aspects of the development of this type of gears, from a historical overview and a current state of the art to the latest applications. It also contains a comprehensive bibliography of publications on this subject. This book is written in a plain understandable style intending to be an eye-opener for gear engineers who are willing to look beyond standards and established traditional gear design practice to achieve the competitive performance of their products. In my opinion, this book will allow moving forward the field of Gearing and will be useful for industry experts, researchers, and students."—Veniamin I. Goldfarb, Institute of Mechanics, Izhevsk State Technical University, Izhevsk, Russia"People look for books on gear engineering, but there is no sufficient information about the detailed problem of gears with asymmetric tooth form. The book authored by Dr. Alex Kapelevich on the gear of asymmetric tooth form is the first comprehensive book on this matter. Dr. Kapelevich was educated in the Soviet Union, where many mathematicians who can deal with gear problems were active. He designed gears with asymmetric tooth form for aircraft gears with big success. I believe without a doubt, that he is the first man in this field of technology on gears with asymmetric tooth form. This book contains much of his experience. I recommend this book for gear engineers who are interested in gears with asymmetric tooth form."—Aizoh Kubo, Kubo's Gear Technologies, Kyoto, Japan"This is a very comprehensive book on the subject of asymmetric gearing, it touches on the history and then gets deeply technical on the design aspects with many design examples for the reader to follow along and learn. It also explains how to manufacture and measure the gears which are very important since designing them alone is only half the job. Dr. Kapelevich also covers tolerancing, efficiency, and side by side comparisons of symmetric and asymmetric gear designs. Altogether it is very complete, a definitive work by Dr. Kapelevich that is well timed since the industry is heading towards more optimized and power dense designs."— Anders Flodin, Höganäs AB, Sweden"Alexander Kapelevich's newest book deals with a topic, which seems to be underrated, today: Asymmetric Gearing. The book offers both, a comprehensive overview as well as thoroughly researched information about the latest state of technology along the complete process chain of asymmetric gears. With many useful explanations and recommendations for the practical application of asymmetrical gears - from gear geometry over limits, rating to manufacturing, tolerancing and inspections - this book offers a lot of valuable information not only about asymmetric but also general aspects of gears and is a meaningful addition to the book "Direct Gear Design" of the same author."—Karsten Stahl, Technische Universität München, Germany" Asymmetric Gears have been well known in the gear industry for many years but have not been used very often in practical gear design. Maybe the reason for that is a lack of knowledge and missing of detailed description/specification, standards, and computer programs. This book can help to understand asymmetric gearing much better and to use the advantages in special applications in which the higher loaded drive flank can be optimized ". Also, manufacturing and measurement data have to be calculated and provided to the shop. Nevertheless, some education at universities and of the staff in gear companies will also be necessary if more acceptance of asymmetric gearing should be achieved."— Franz J. Joachim, Joachim Gear Consulting (before retirement: ZF Friedrichshafen AG), Germany"A new book by Dr. Alex Kapelevich "Asymmetric Gearing" is the first book ever on the subject, and even only due to this, the book can be considered as a significant event in the gear community of the United States. Besides gears with asymmetric teeth are known for a long while, there was no a source of information for the gear engineers, in which the topic is covered. In his book, Dr. A.
