The Royal Navy required high quality specific types of this propellant in order for its ordnance to operate most effectively. Acetone was needed as a gelatinizing agent to incorporate the chemical components during cordite manufacture. At the start of World War I the United Kingdom’s reserve of acetone was very limited. Traditionally, acetone was obtained from wood distillation. An alternative method for making acetone was essential. Chaim Weitzmann (the first President of Israel) was instrumental in formulating a bacterial process that could make a significant contribution to the supply of acetone needed to keep the guns firing. Many problems relating to the efficiency and scale of production had to be overcome. Holton Heath in Dorset became the site where the process became one of the first examples of biotechnology working at an industrially useful scale.","PeriodicalId":53171,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for the History of Engineering and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2014-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/1758120614Z.00000000043","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65748601","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He had conceived a complex triangular inner structure for airships: a longitudinal frame made up of non-rigid ropes, permeable curtains and metal cables, joined to a metal articulated plane keel and two metal longerons, which rigidify altogether through the excess of pressure level of the gas. The initial system evolved to the design of an auto-rigid airship with a trefoil shape based upon a triangular non-rigid inner structure. After trials with two small models in Spain and France between 1906 and 1909, more than thirty units were manufactured in France between 1911 and 1936, and more than sixty in the UK between 1915 and 1919. But the number of different possible systems for the construction of dirigible balloons included in Torresquevedian contribution would cover more than one hundred years in airship designs.","PeriodicalId":53171,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for the History of Engineering and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2011-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/175812111X13033852943237","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65748685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The 1877 apparatus for Newcastle, NSW was derived from the Sydney design and built in Australia. The 1875 apparatus for Semaphore, South Australia is deduced to be a development of a design by Charles Todd who was responsible at Greenwich for time ball operation before his departure for Adelaide in 1855 and who had a high regard for Maudslay's. Like that at Greenwich it used a chain hoist, but explicit statements about its designer and manufacturer have not yet been found. It is likely that Semaphore had the first heavy-duty time ball apparatus to be manufactured in Australia and that its design was rooted in Maudslay's experience.","PeriodicalId":53171,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for the History of Engineering and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2009-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/175812009X407196","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65748816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Simple cast iron beams sufficed for short spans but problems arose with jointing of castings for longer ones. A solution, with wrought iron ties added to bolted castings, seemed ideal and was widely adopted. The misconception with this scheme was not realised until after the disastrous failure of Stephenson's Dee Bridge at Chester in 1847. A major inquiry followed and extensive remedial work. New bridge forms emerged, notably Fairbairn's ungainly wrought plate girders. Charles Wild's development from the failed system was another. Here Wild successfully used the principle of prestressing on cast iron, some 80 years before Freyssinet 'introduced' it with concrete in the 1930s. Fairbairn's thinking had a wide following but the only application of Wild's design was his neatly detailed bridge over the Arno.

The enterprise began in 1601 at Stanton Drew, Somerset, making armour plate and pans. The chief workman was Cornelius Hallen, possibly from Mechelen, Belgium. A second and larger branch was established at Wandsworth in or about 1634, with about fourteen foreign workmen, some at least from the Liege area. Between 1647 and 1654, the Hallens established three further branches in the West Midlands, at Coalbrookdale, Stourbridge and Newcastle-under-Lyme, with a plate mill and pan shops at each. Around 1700, the two earlier sites were converted to copper working, but the Hallens continued to make iron pans in the Midlands. A Birmingham branch was added in about 1719.
