Description: This book explores the principles of alignment charts, also known as nomographs, and their application to engineering formulas. It presents a systematic approach to constructing alignment charts, starting with the development of scales and discussing the use of perpendicular and parallel scales. The book covers topics such as graphical interpolation, curve fitting, and the solution of empirical formulas. It also includes practical examples and exercises to illustrate the methods described. Throughout the book, the author provides a thorough examination of the techniques used to create alignment charts. The book delves into the concepts behind these charts, enabling readers to understand the principles involved in their construction. The book also discusses the application of alignment charts to various fields, including engineering, physics, and economics. By providing a comprehensive guide to alignment charts, this book serves as a valuable resource for engineers, scientists, and anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of this graphical computation method.
