An ingenious work on contact mechanics by Föppl and Schubert went into oblivion due to the Second World War

28.09.2020 tribonet 217 Views

The history of science sometimes reads like a detective novel. The personal destinies sometimes lead to the fact that outstanding, ingenious works which were decades ahead of their time, sink into oblivion. This seems to […]
