Bringing together decades of research findings into a single,
coherent source, this practical guide discusses industrial,
automotive, and chemical gasket types and materials from selection,
installation, and testing to applications and problem-solving and
prevention methods. The coverage includes, but is not limited to,
the complex mechanical and leakage behavior of gaskets and gasketed
joints; instructions for choosing proper gaskets based on hands-on
experience and a computer-based selection approach; evaluation of
mehods for testing gaskets; comparisons of flanged joint design
rules for the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code using the Taylor
Forge form; and more.
Presenting time-tested standard as well as reliable emerging
knowledge on threaded fasteners and joints, this book covers how to
select parts and materials, predict behavior, control assembly
processes, and solve on-the-job problems. It examines key issues
affecting bolting in the automotive, pressure vessel,
petrochemical, aerospace, and structural steel industries. The
editors have successfully created a useful rather than scholarly
handbook with chapters written in a straightforward, how-to-do-it
manner. Theory is discussed only when necessary and the handbook's
logical organization and thorough index enhances its usefulness.
This reports on adolescents males' construction of masculinity
through media production (and adolescent femals' responses) in a
seventh grade social studies classroom. It revealed how boys and
girls in a middle school classroom participated in masculinity's
construction, which they expressed through six "masculine themes"
(masculinity-through-competition, -domination, -revulsion, -sexism,
-racism, and -heteronormativity). It identified masculine themes as
students created and presented projects for the teacher's social
studies unit on media. These themes, the researcher found,
successfully conceptualized and made "visible" oft-repeated forms
of masculine expression. While boys tended overwhelmingly to
construct the classroom as male, masculine themes enabled the
researcher to detect forms of resistance to masculine
constructions. Although girls often accommodated to boys' masculine
expressions, some of them demonstrated resistance to overtly sexist
assertions. Girls' expressions of resistance to masculinity, while
never sufficient to create a proto-resistance classroom movement,
still demonstrated the context was contested gender terrain.
