"The purpose of this book is to explain two useful techniques for handling data (from experiments, from routine manufacturing operations, or from routine professional and business activities) , namely,Nomographs, which provide quick graphical answers where numerical data are substituted into formulas and Empirical Equations, which are the mathematical expressions of data plotted in the form of curves. . A working knowledge of nomographs and empirical equations is useful not only to many engineers but also to physicists, chemists, doctors, and other scientific and professional groups which engage in experimental research. . . The author has chosen what is to him the simplest and most direct approach and has not attempted to write a treatise which presents all approaches to these subjects. " Contents: Introduction; Parallel scale nomographs; Z-Charts; Parallel and perpendicular index lines; Concurrent scales; Recurrent variables; Combined nomographs; Methods of curve fitting; Curves of two constants; Curves of three constants; Curves of four constants. Index, Figures & Equations. Includes two foldouts: Logarithmic Scales and Uniform Scales, Scales for Square Roots.
