Constructing and Understanding New and Old Scales on Slide Rules

Istvan Szalkai, Ace Hoffman

We discuss the practical problems arising when constructing any (new or old) scales on slide rules, i.e. realizing the theory in the practice. This might help anyone in planning an…

General Two-variable Functions on the Slide-rule

István Szalkai

We discuss the general theory of realizing two-variable fuctions on slide rules (based on our paper 1977) and offer some new scales for practical use.
