Walter...

I did review the website.  Looks good.  Simple and easy to navigate and no hype or "BS"

Gordy - I would be happy to put something together. It should take about a week or two. I've been planning

on putting together an article on casting physics (simplified) for the Loop. This will give me some incentive

to start sooner rather than later.

 

In the meantime could you take a look at the website I've put together and give me some feedback? I used

a program I was able to find on the web to convert the list of emails I have to an archive so the subject list

is automatically generated by that program. We could spend some time going through the list to identify

the ones that are most relevant and create an additional, better organized, list from that. I haven't included

emails from the past few weeks - wouldn't take to long to do that at this point - I thought I should get something

for people to look at sooner rather than later.

 

The web site is   www.snapcasts.com

 

follow the study group link for stuff related to the study group.

 

Thanks

 

Walter

Walter...

Many of us non-physics / engineer folks in the Group, have had trouble really coming to terms with the basic understanding of:

1.) Velocity  2.) Acceleration  3.) Linear acceleration as well as terms relating to application of force, torsional and otherwise.

I wonder if you could help us by referring us to some basic texts or other writings  which will help clarify these and other physics terms in a way which is not too difficult for the lay person to understand ?

Thanks !
