Engineering Design Handbook: Environmental Series. Part One. Basic Environmental Concepts

Abstract

This handbook, Basic Environmental Concepts, is the first in a series on the nature and effects of the environmental phenomena. Part One introduces the importance of the environment; i.e., its effects, the factors of the environment, the complex combinations of the environment that occur, quantitative environmental concepts, and the testing of materiel and simulation of the environment. The categorization of materiel as it exists and relates to environmental effects also is discussed. Part One introduces in a general and qualitative manner those factors that are to be treated quantitatively in the succeeding volumes.
