This website is devoted to discussion of
the book by Dr, Jesse Yoder and Dick Morley that looks at the theory of sensors and
measurement. The book is called:
The Tao of Measurement: A
Philosophical View of Flow and Sensors
Synopsis
of Book: This book develops the theory of measurement of some of the most
important and commonly measured variables.
The approach of the book is both historical and theoretical.
It looks at different measurement instruments and tools that have been
developed for measuring common variables, and explains the theory behind them. It then uses the theory developed to talk about current and
future developments in measurement for the particular variable being discussed.
This
book looks at the following variables, and the tools and instruments used to
measure them:
- Flow
- Pressure
- Temperature
- Time
- Length
- Area
The sections on length and area will explore some
alternative views of geometry, including circular geometry. You can find a
discussion of some of these ideas at www.flowmath.com.
Outline of Book
The discussion of time will include some alternative
views of time, including decimal time and flowtime. For more information on
flowtime, go to http://www.flowresearch.com/Flowtime/flowtime.htm.
