The Hatteras lighthouse is more than a guiding light to seafarers, it also stands as a memorial to the keepers and their families who honored a public trust at great cost and who faithfully provided this valuable service. With the passing of time, however, the tides have gradually eroded the beach on which the sentinel stands, threatening to topple the structure. Thus one of the most daunting engineering tasks imaginable has been undertaken to save the lighthouse and move it to a new foundation 1,600 feet inland from its original site. This book commemorates the event and recalls th

Build the Strongest Boat Possible Metal boats can deal with hazards like ice and coral that would rip apart a fiberglass or wooden hull; many long-distance cruisers choose a metal boat for just that reason. But they are not mass-produced; the only way to get one is to build it yourself or have it custom-built. Bruce Roberts-Goodson has been designing and building metal boats for more than three decades, and in The Complete Guide to Metal Boats he tells you all you need to know to start building the boat of your dreams. How to build or refurbish hulls, decks, and superstructures Ho

This book, aimed at precollege teachers, shows how the role of simulation modeling in investigating dynamic processes is now extending beyond research and university environments to the precollege world. The introduction of computer modeling has the potential to significantly improve the quality of secondary science and mathematics education. Enhanced by the adoption of national standards, the increasing access to information through the Internet, and the availability of powerful, user-friendly modeling software, modeling has become even more accessible and relevant to the science and mathemat
