Experiments and Observations on the Following Subjects is a seminal scientific work by John Smeaton, first published in the 18th century. This comprehensive volume presents a detailed account of Smeaton's pioneering research and practical experiments in the fields of engineering, physics, and mechanics. The book is divided into several sections, each focusing on a specific subject of inquiry, including the power of water and wind mills, the strength and properties of various materials, and the construction and efficiency of engines and machinery. Smeaton meticulously documents his experimental methods, observations, and results, providing readers with clear explanations and illustrations that enhance understanding. He explores the effects of different variables on mechanical performance, such as the impact of water flow on mill wheels, the resistance of air and water, and the comparative advantages of different engine designs. The work also delves into the principles of hydraulics, pneumatics, and the application of scientific knowledge to practical engineering problems. Throughout the book, Smeaton emphasizes the importance of empirical evidence and careful measurement, setting a standard for scientific inquiry in engineering. His observations laid the groundwork for future advancements in civil and mechanical engineering, influencing the design of bridges, lighthouses, and other critical infrastructure. Experiments and Observations on the Following Subjects remains a valuable historical document, offering insight into the early development of experimental science and the innovative spirit of the Industrial Revolution.
