Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of fibre rope technology has witnessed incredible change and technological advance over the last few decades. At the forefront of this change has been the development of synthetic fibres and modern types of rope construction. This handbook updates the history and structural mechanics of fibre rope technology and describes the types and properties of modern rope-making materials and constructions.Following an introduction to fibre ropes, the Handbook of fibre rope technology takes a comprehensive look at rope-making materials, rope structures, properties and mechanics and covers rope production, focusing on laid strand, braided, low-twist and parallel yarn ropes. Terminations are also introduced and the many uses of rope are illustrated. The key issues surrounding the inspection and retirement of rope are identified and rope testing is thoroughly examined. The final two chapters review rope markets, distribution and liability and provide case studies from the many environments in which fibre rope is used.The Handbook of fibre rope technology is an essential reference for everyone assisting in the design, selection, use, inspection and testing of fibre rope. A comprehensive look at rope-making materials and structures, properties and mechanics Covers rope production including laid strand, braided, low-twist and parallel yarn ropes and rope terminations Rope testing is examined in depth, as well as the key issues surrounding rope retirement

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has become obvious that high speed Internet access has become a necessity for everyone not a luxury. The best and most obvious solution, fiber to the home (FTTH, ) has become a reality and is in widespread use worldwide. This handbook is written for those who want to know more about FTTH, whether they are considering a FTTH project for their area or are involved already in planning, designing, building or operating a FTTH network already. The Fiber Optic Association (FOA) is the international professional organization of fiber optics and certifying body for fiber optic technicians. FOA has been involved with FTTH since in the early 2000s. This book began as a compilation of all the FTTH materials from the FOA Guide and FTTH CFOS/H certification curriculum and expanded with additional materials covering FTTH project design and management. The FOA materials come from almost two decades of experience with FTTH including developing training curriculum for training techs for the earliest commercial installations of FTTH and consulting with many diverse FTTH projects. This handbook is written to provide the technical information that can help a service provider understand how to start a FTTH project or a local organization decide if they want to create a do-it-yourself FTTH project run by their local government, electrical coop or a public-private partnership.

Book excerpt: In recent years there has been a meteoric rise in the use of plastic fiber optic cables, e.g. for data transmission on short to medium-length transmission paths. The reason for this is that plastic fiber optic cables can be connected to the relevant transmission components at low cost and using simple tools. This book offers an introduction to the physical principles of the new technology and describes the materials and manufacturing process of plastic fibers as well as the construction of plastic fiber optic cables. It describes various types of cable, as well as transmitting and receiving components in the transmission path and provides useful tips on the processing and installation of plastic fiber optic cable. Reference is also made to important national and international standards. This book is intended for anyone involved in the development, planning or installation of plastic fiber optic cable systems. The fundamental structure of the book also makes it suitable for university lecturers and students.

This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 683 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small though they were, PT boats played a key role in World War II, carrying out an astonishing variety of missions where fast, versatile, and strongly armed vessels were needed. Called "weapons of opportunity," they met the enemy at closer quarters and with greater frequency than any other type of surface craft. Among the most famous PT commanders was John F. Kennedy, whose courageous actions in the Pacific are now well known to the American public. The author of the book, another distinguished PT boat commander in the Pacific, compiled this history of PT-boat operations in World War II for the U.S. Navy shortly after V-J Day, when memories were fresh and records easily assessable. Bulkley provides a wealth of facts about these motor torpedo boats, whose vast range of operation covered two oceans as well as the Mediterranean and the English Channel. Although their primary mission was to attack surface ships and craft close to shore, they were also used effectively to lay mines and smoke screens, to rescue downed aviators, and to carry out intelligence and raider operations. The author gives special attention to the crews, paying well-deserved tribute to their heroism, skill, and sacrifice that helped to win the war.
