Mechanical Variables Measurement - Solid, Fluid, and Thermal

Accuracy in the laboratory setting is key to maintaining the integrity of scientific research. This handy guide helps minimize this pitfall through careful detailing of measurement techniques. Concise yet thorough, Mechanical Variables Measurement-Solid, Fluid, and Thermal describes the use of instruments and methods for practical measurements. The articles provide equations to assist engineers and scientists who seek to discover applications and solve problems that arise in areas outside of their specialty. This is the first place to turn when deciding on, performing, and troubleshooting the measurement process. The book leads the reader, step-by-step, through the straits of experimentation to triumph.
