Pick
your amusement park, anywhere on the planet, and where are the longest,
most aggravating lines? The roller coasters! A blazing fast thrill ride
that just keeps pushing the envelope - to the daredevil delight of
thousands. But as loopy as the creativity gets or the steeper the drop,
or the faster the turns and the louder the screams- one thing they
aren't, overall, is unsafe.
Find out how roller coasters are designed with the highest of safety standards by reading Coasters 101: An Engineer’s Guide to Roller Coaster Design by Nick Weisenberger. Warning: Side effects of reading may cause dizziness, nausea, or the sudden urge to visit a theme park.
The newly revised Second Edition includes interesting added content like:
- Evolution of the roller coaster
- Detailed description on launch systems
- A people powered coaster
- How a 4th dimension coaster works
- the modern vertical loop
- and much more!
