Chapter 4 Mechanical Properties of Wood David W. Green, Jerrold E. Winandy, and David E. Kretschmann Contents he mechanical properties presented in this chapter were obtained from tests of small pieces of wood Orthotropic Nature of Wood 4–1 termed “clear” and “straight grained” because they Elastic Properties 4–2 did not contain characteristics such as knots, cross grain, Modulus of Elasticity 4–2 checks, and splits. These test pieces did have anatomical Poisson’s Ratio 4–2 characteristics such as growth rings that occurred in consis-
Two-Stroke TUNER’S HANDBOOK By Gordon Jennings Illustrations by the author Copyright © 1973 by Gordon Jennings Compiled for reprint © 2007 by Ken i PREFACE Many years have passed since Gordon Jennings first published this manual. Its 2007 and although there have been huge technological changes the basics are still the basics. There is a huge interest in vintage snowmobiles and their “simple” two stroke power plants of yesteryear. There is a wealth of knowledge contained in this manual. Let’s journey back to 1973 and read the book that was the two stroke bible of that era. Decades have passed since I hung around with John and Jim. John and I worked for the same corporation and I found a 500 triple Kawasaki for him at a reasonable price. He converted it into a drag bike, modified the engine completely and added mikuni carbs and tuned pipes. John borrowed Jim’s cop
TOPICS FOR SPEAKING CYLINDER FRAME The cylinder section of the engine consists of a number of cylinder blocks, which are tightened together with the engine frame and the bedplate by means of through- going stay bolts. Two central bores, one at the top and one halfway down inside the cylinder block, enclose the cylinder liner. The upper part of the cylinder block forms part of the cooling water space around the central part of the cylinder liner, whereas the lower part forms the scavenge air space. A central bore in the bottom of the cylinder block encloses the piston rod stuffing box. The bottom is double with a hollow space through which cooling water is circulated. On the exhaust side of the cylinder block there is a circular opening leading into the longitudinal scavenge air receiver of the engine. Furthermore, there is an inlet pipe for cooling and lubricating oil. The cylinder block is provided with cleaning and inspection covers for the cooling water and

Confined spaces that may be immediately hazardous to life and should only be entered using appropriate procedures and equipment. Noise levels that require workers to wear hearing protection. Liquid tanks and ponds that may result in drowning. Pumps and other machinery that are entanglement hazards due to rotating shafts, pinch points and other moving parts. Biogas and manure liquids that cause rapid corrosion or failure of electrical equipment, gas handling piping and building components. Small children and unaware visitors who can wonder into areas of danger and become serious injured or drown. Ladders, platforms and roofs without guards, cages or other fall prevention measures. Dirty liquids and gases escaping under high pressure. Future prospects There must be more researches about many topics concerning biogas in order to make biogas technology applicable and to achieve success from the investments in this field
