| Title | Diagrams, experimental equipment by Herbert Tomlinson |
| Date | 1887 |
| Description | Three figures, labelled figures 1-3, showing the instruments used by Tomlinson in his investigations into the influence of stress and strain on the physical properties of matter and a broken metal bar as observed during his experiments.
Subject: Scientific apparatus and instruments
Prints of these diagrams were published in volume 43 of the Proceedings of the Royal Society alongside the paper 'The influence of stress and strain on the physical properties of matter. Part I. Elasticity—continued. The velocity of sound in metals and a comparison of their moduli of longitudinal and torsional elasticities as determined by statical and kinetical methods'. |
