Published in 1960, Symposium on Hydraulic Fluids captures hydraulic engineering at the beginning of the Space Age, when engineers were developing new fluids and systems for increasingly demanding automobiles, ships, military aircraft, and emerging aerospace applications.
The volume collects papers presented at the American Society for Testing Materials' Third Pacific Area National Meeting in San Francisco on October 13, 1959. It was the first symposium organized by ASTM's Technical Committee N on Hydraulic Fluids and surveyed both the state of hydraulic technology and where engineers expected it to go next.
Topics include automotive central hydraulic systems, high-pressure shipboard equipment, aircraft hydraulic fluids, fire-resistant industrial fluids, synthetic fluids, high-temperature stability, and hydraulic technology for air and space vehicles.
Viewed today, the book is a compact snapshot of engineering during a period when aviation, military technology, industrial automation, and the emerging space program were placing entirely new demands on materials and fluid systems.
