The thirteenth Leeds-Lyon Tribology Symposium was devoted to the topic of Fluid Film Lubrication in celebration of the centenary of the publication of the classical paper by Professor Osborne Reynolds in which he identified the mechanism of hydrodynamic lubrication.

These proceedings contain more than seventy papers, written by authors from all over the world, covering the entire spectrum of fluid film lubrication.Of particular interest is the detailed consideration of a wide range of machine elements - bearings, seals, cams, rolling elements, as well as the in-depth, state-of-the-art, analytical contributions.

This new edition continues the emphasis of prior editions on such topics as the relationship of local governments to state and federal governments; the needs of local governments for territory, for personnel, and for adequate financing; and the principal activities and possible liabilities of local government. There is increased attention to land use control, an area of growing activity on the part of institutions, ranging from the U.S. Supreme Court to local zoning boards. This includes material not found in some books in this field, on such important concepts as smart growth, new urbanism, and regulatory takings. ... Read more

Product Description
By this research it is shown that there is one, and only one,
conceivable purely mechanical system capable of accounting for all the
physical evidence, as we know it, in the Universe.

The system is neither more nor less than an arrangement, of indefinite
extent, of uniform spherical grains generally in normal piling so close that
the grains cannot change their neighbours, although continually in relative
motion with each other ; the grains being of changeless shape and size ; thus
constituting, to a first approximation, an elastic medium with six axes of
elasticity symmetrically placed.

Product Description
Local Government Law provides an overview of the operations and the inter-relationships of the various levels of government in this country, with the emphasis on local units. First, there is a discussion of local governmental units. Attention is then turned to the forms of government within such units. The text goes on to cover the relationship of local governments to the state and federal; local units, including the units, powers, limitations on those powers, and forms local legislative action may take; the three most important ingredients in the local government-territory, people, and money; the activities of local government; and finally, means for holding local governments liable and/or making them responsive to their citizens.In each of the 31 chapters, an effort has been made to discuss those topics most often covered in law school courses in Local Government Law. Reynold's Local Government Law provides an exhaustive, yet single-volume, treatment of the development of American law of local government, the current laws, the major existing problems, and the discernible trends. ...
