About this Item

1st Printing. Hardbound 8vo (about 8.5 inches tall) 119 pages. Bibliography, appendices. Description: Figure illustrations. The first chapter of this book originally appeared in 1962-3 issues of Environmental Quarterly. Following is taken from the preface: ''The purpose of this manual is to provide the background information needed to understand and to successfully use piezoelectric accelerometers in dynamic measurements. Subject covered range from the basic nature of the environment to be studied to actual step by step instruction on selection and use of specific equipment. The content has been graded to be useful to both operating technicians and engineers.'' Author Dale Pennington was a Drill Instructor in the Marine Corps, a physicist, and a licensed pilot with first hand experience carrying out photo reconnaissance and instrumentation test flights from the Amazon River Basin up to 21,000 foot altitudes. He was also employed as Field Engineer by the Endevco Corporation, and later as Manager of Technical Service, where he was responsible for the preparation and/or approval of technical literature concerning Endevco's line of AC and DC instrumentation for aerospace and industry. Includes a laid-in errata sheet, as well as errata printed on the rear flap of the dust jacket. BINDING/CONDITION: printed boards; owner's name on the front endpaper, otherwise a Fine book, with a Fine dust jacket. ISBN: B0007FCD76. Seller Inventory # 063073
