Low speed wind tunnel testing (book)

AI Thread Summary
Recommendations were sought for purchasing the book "Low Speed Wind Tunnel Testing" online, preferably second-hand, due to unavailability in the user's small country. The user clarified that they were looking for physical copies rather than electronic documents, countering assumptions about copyright violations. After some discussion, it was noted that Amazon had a used copy available for $16. The user expressed gratitude for the assistance and provided an update that they successfully acquired the book. The thread highlights the challenges of sourcing specific academic texts in limited markets.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but would any of you have recommendations as to where I can get this online first or preferably second hand at its best price?

Alternatively, do any of you have this book and you wouldn't mind selling?

My country is plenty small and my whole team of 4 scoured the entire place and every university/polytechnic/library and couldn't find it -_-; so I've no choice but to turn to the internet. At the same time, the amazon marketplace shuts my location out, which makes it more difficult.

Thanks in advance!

Just a self-update, I got it. Thanks nonetheless.
 
Just a word of advice to all of the people that post these kinds of threads...

You will not get any kind of real response because you are asking people to violate copyright.
 
I believe you misread "get it online" as "get it as an electronic document". I meant get it through online SHOPPING. I don't know what sort of copyright violation this would constitute. I thought it was fairly obvious when I said:

but would any of you have recommendations as to where I can get this online first or preferably second hand at its best price?

...mind selling?...

...amazon marketplace...

No insult intended, but don't you feel it's weird to assume I wanted a first or second hand... electronic document... :rolleyes:? Or for that matter, an electronic document at its... best price :rolleyes: ?

So indeed, your response seems like an imaginary response.

Edit: And I don't think there's anything wrong with the rest of your advice since it was meant in good-will - I even agree with it, which is why I am trying to buy the book. But the pronoun "you" is misused.

Thread 'Bubble formation in 4 mm gap vessel'

How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Find 3D Printer & Software Resources for Prototype Creation'

I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
