RECHERCHES THÉORIQUES ET EXPÉRIMENTALES Sur la force de torsion, & sur I'élasticité des fils de métal
(2022-06-24)This Memoir has two objectives: the first, to determine the elastic force of torsion of fil-aments of steel and of brass as a function of their length, their thickness, and their degree of tension. I have already had need, ... -
Construction et usage d'une balance électrique, fondée sur la propriété qu'ont les fils de métal, d'avoir une force de réaction de torsion proportionnelle à l'angle de torsion
(2022-06-24)In a memoir presented to the Academy, in 1784, I have determined from experiments the laws governing the torsional resistance of a filament of metal and I have found that this force is proportional to the angle of torsion, ... -
