Abernethy author of The New Weibull Handbook, (visit this hyperlink to download a PDF copy of Chapter 1 from his book) has a collection of Weibull articles in his library. Some of the articles in Dr. Bob’s library were written directly by Ernst Hjalmar Waloddi Weibull. Many of the Weibull articles are copies from other bad copies, thus legibility is a little difficult in preserving these old, important, historical, documents pertaining to Weibull analysis.
How do you pronounce Waloddi Weibull’s name? In the words of a popular song from years ago with the vegetable tomato spelled phonetically: “…you say tow-may-toes and I say ta-mat-toes….”.

Not much difference! Ref: North American Datum of 1983 NOAA Professional Paper NOS 2 Charles R. Schwarz, Editor U.S. Department of Commerce by:Sam Wormley swormley@cnde.iastate.edu 3/7/97 1.4 How do I convert between NAD83 and WGS 84? I think the proposition of doing a "datum shift" between NAD83 and WGS84 is a waste of time. The ellipsoid of the World Geodetic System of 1984 is defined by four constants, one being the "bar C sub 20" Normalized Second Degree Zonal Harmonic Coefficient of the Gravitational Potential - the "J2" term is computed. The differences between the semi-minor axes are computational (secondary DEPENDENT) variables based on different definitions of the gravity field.

ASCE, ISSN 0733-9380/96/0001-0017-0025 Abstract The education of our future water resources engineers is incomplete without an appreciation of the men and women who created the profession of civil engineering in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Introduction When people asked Isaac Newton how he had accomplished so much, he answered, "If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants. " Who are these giants and why is it important that students have knowledge of the history of our profession? Open channel flow and Manning formula. NGS FAQs.
