Some Engineering Problems of the Panama Canal in Their Relation to Geology and Topography
Report issued by the Bureau of Mines over issues encountered during construction of the Panama Canal. As stated in the introduction, "this report aims to discuss, from the viewpoint of the mining geologist, the bearing of topographic and geologic conditions on certain problems that arose in the construction of the Panama Canal" (p. 7). This report includes tables, maps, illustrations, and photographs.

Increase in Maximum Pressures Produced by Preignition in Internal Combustion Engines
Report discusses the calculations that can be used to show why pressures inside an engine during preignition are higher than average. This information can be used to design a safer engine that is able to contain the increased pressure and heat generated during preignition.

The Problem of the Turbo-Compressor
"In terminating the study of the adaptation of the engine to the airplane, we will examine the problem of the turbo-compressor, the first realization of which dates from the war; this will form an addition to the indications already given on supercharging at various altitudes. This subject is of great importance for the application of the turbo-compressor worked by the exhaust gases. Assuming that the increase of pressure in the admission manifold is the same in both cases, the pressure in the exhaust manifold would be greater in the case in which the compressor is worked by the exhaust gas and there would result a certain reduction of engine power which we must be able to calculate" (p. 1).

Soaring Flight in Guinea
Report discusses information obtained from studying large birds that fly by soaring, which involves using the wind without moving their wings. An Egyptian vulture and African white-backed vulture were observed and their relative air speed, upward air velocity, lift, and drag were noted. The experimental methods for measuring these values are described.

Theory of Lifting Surfaces, Part 2
A mathematical model is presented towards a theory of lifting and resistance on wings. It consists hide of a theory of multiplanes, conditions of flow at a great distance from the wing, lifting systems of minimum resistance, and free stream and stream limited by walls.

The Employment of Airships for the Transport of Passengers: Indications on the Maximum Limits of Their Useful Load, Distance Covered, Altitude and Speed
It was a conclusion of this detailed study of the practicality of using airships for carrying passengers that, although slow, airships are capable of carrying useful loads over long distances. However, it is noted that there is a certain limit to the advantages of large cubature. Beyond a certain point, the maximum altitude of the airship goes on decreasing, in spite of the fact that the range of action in the horizontal plane and the useful load go on increasing. The possibility of rapid climb is an essential factor of security in aerial navigation in the case of storms, as is velocity.

Large German airship stations
"It is profitable to examine the organization and equipment of the German airship stations. The stations best adapted for serving as the basis of this study were chiefly constructed by the German Navy, during the war, for exclusively military purposes and do not therefore entirely satisfy the conditions of exploitation required for a civilian air service. The requisite modifications for satisfying the latter conditions may nevertheless be readily determined according to circumstances" (p. 1).

A New Method of Testing in Wind Tunnels
Now, in existing wind tunnels, using a horsepower of 100 to 300, the models are generally made to a 1/10 scale and the speed is appreciably lower than the speeds currently attained by airplanes. The Reynolds number realized is thus 15 to 25 times smaller than that reached by airplanes in free flight, while the ratio of speed to the velocity of sound is between a third and three quarters of the true ratio. The necessary increases in either the diameter of the wind tunnel or the velocity of the airstream are too costly.
