19625150University of Michigan 1962. Hardback. Good. <p><strong>University of Michigan International Conference on the Structural Design of Asphalt Pavements – Proceedings 1962</strong><br /><em>University of Michigan – University of Michigan</em><br />ISBN: none roads don’t need barcodes they need bearing capacity<br /><strong>Condition:</strong> Good<br />Vendor: <strong>Crappy Old Books</strong></p><p>Welcome to the glamorous high-octane world of… asphalt pavement design.</p><p>This hefty volume contains the full proceedings of the <strong>1962 International Conference on the Structural Design of Asphalt Pavements</strong> a gathering where the great and the good of civil engineering converged to discuss the deepest most profound question of all:</p><blockquote><p><em>“How thick should this road actually be before it collapses under trucks and bad planning”</em></p></blockquote><p>Inside this formidable relic of mid-century engineering optimism you will find:</p><ul><li><p>Papers with thrilling titles involving <strong>load repetitions subgrade moduli resilient response fatigue life and layer theory</strong> all delivered with the intense sincerity of people who truly believe in the power of a well-compacted base course.</p></li><li><p>Graphs – so many graphs – plotting wheel loads deflections and failure criteria like it’s a particularly niche form of modern art.</p></li><li><p>Charts and equations carefully designed to make non-engineers back away slowly while pavement nerds nod happily and start reaching for a slide rule.</p></li><li><p>Case studies from around the world each essentially saying: “We built this road. We drove heavy things over it. Here’s when it started to crack and here’s what we think about that.”</p></li><li><p>The full 1960s experience of <strong>typewritten camera-ready copy</strong> diagrams done by hand and the absolute absence of PowerPoint in any form.</p></li></ul><p>It’s a love letter to asphalt as a serious structural scientific endeavour long before it became just something commuters complained about when it develops a pothole.</p><p>Our copy is graded <strong>Good</strong> which in the candid dialect of <strong>Crappy Old Books</strong> means:</p><ul><li><p>The <strong>cover/boards</strong> are solid with only modest wear around the edges – call it the bibliographic equivalent of surface fretting: entirely cosmetic structurally sound.</p></li><li><p>The <strong>spine</strong> is upright and holding like a well-designed pavement keeping its shape under repeated axle loads. Minor rubbing here and there but nothing approaching rutting.</p></li><li><p>The <strong>pages</strong> are all present firmly bound and pleasantly aged to that warm “archival engineering library” tone. You may spot the occasional underlining check mark or inscrutable margin note – perhaps from a past reader who was genuinely excited about elastic layer theory.</p></li><li><p>No catastrophic coffee spills no half-detached signatures: just honest professional handling wear from people who one suspects used the phrase “serviceability index” in casual conversation.</p></li></ul><p>Not pristine but then neither are most of the roads it helped to design.</p><p>Perfect for:</p><ul><li><p><strong>Civil engineers and pavement specialists</strong> who want to commune with the ancestors and see what the field looked like before finite element software and colour printers.</p></li><li><p><strong>Infrastructure history nerds</strong> keen to understand how mid-20th-century minds turned empirical wheel tracks into design standards.</p></li><li><p><strong>Urbanists and transport geeks</strong> who realise that beneath every city story is a quietly suffering road structure.</p></li><li><p>Anyone who thinks it’s funny to own a giant serious conference proceedings volume solely devoted to asphalt and then proudly display it on the coffee table.</p></li></ul><p>The <strong>1962 University of Michigan International Conference on the Structural Design of Asphalt Pavements</strong> proceedings are a monument to the idea that if you measure calculate and argue enough you can build a road that will outlast everything except civil service paperwork.</p><p>Available now from <strong>Crappy Old Books</strong> where our subjects are niche our grading is honest and we firmly believe that beneath every great civilisation lies a carefully designed pavement structure with well-documented deflection data.</p> University of Michigan hardcover

The large image is made of smaller portraits of students and faculty each measuring 1.5" x 1" inches with students names below each one. Of the over 150 medical students 4 are women 3 of them white and one Indian. The medical faculty is entirely male. Aside from the Indian female student the entire class is white. The group all together highlight the slow diversification of the medical field to incorporate women and minorities. The photo has a small tear to one margin but not affect class images or text.

201078258Ann Arbor MI: University of Michigan Center for Radiative Shock Hydrodymamics CRASH 2010. Presumed First Edition thus. DVD. Very good. 1 DVD containing information from the Annual Review October 28-29 2010. The disk includes the two-day agenda a list of 28 poster sessions 10 major presentations and 3 addenda materials. There is information presented on the Program Overview RadHydro Transport Physics and UQ Simulations of the Experiments CRASH UQ Program Software Integration Understanding Experimental Uncertainties CRASH Laser Package Diffusion model error assessment Report on Predictive Science Courses and Computational Needs going forward. The Center for Radiative Shock Hydrodynamics CRASH is advancing predictive science in the nationally important area of radiation hydrodynamics RH via a unified multi-prong approach. To substantially improve the ability to do predictive simulations of high - energy - density and astrophysical flows Center researchers are: Developing a software framework for RH to serve as a testbed for development verification and validation of RH modeling elements. Developing a system for hierarchically validating the software framework. Extending an existing experimental effort centered on radiative shocks to obtain data and quantify uncertainties in the experiments. Simulating these experiments and quantifying the accuracy of the simulations. Establishing a doctoral program for Predictive Science and Engineering.

190748895Detroit: John Borman & Son 1907. 1907. TRADE CATALOG. First edition. 5 1/2" x 9" in gray-green printed wrappers. 192 pp. Black and white illustrations. Pricing. An unusually rare buggy and wagon manufacturer's catalog which focused on direct sales rather than a network of dealers. The catalog illustrates their entire line-up of buggies surries carriages phaeton Stanhopes runabouts road wagons spring wagons express wagons delivery wagons milk bakery and mail wagons with harnesses of all kinds with illustrations information on and pricing for each. Harry and Frank Jacobs had initially partnered with H.L. Patterson in the Union Buggy Co. as early as 1901 selling the "Union" line of vehicles manufactured by other Pontiac Michigan wagon and buggy manufacturers and marketing them in their line of catalogs. After the Union Buggy Co. folded the company was reconstituted for a couple years as the Union Buggy & Harness Co. Within a couple years the company must have folded because by 1910 Harry was working for auto manufacturers in Pontiac as a purchasing agent and Frank was working as an executive with the local knitting mills. Also present is the original printed mailing envelope showing a 1907 postmark. Light scraping to front wrapper. Very good. John Borman & Son, 1907. unknown
