Season 1983

Leonard Maunder: Machines in motion

The 1983 CHRISTMAS LECTURES discuss the ways in which our knowledge of motion continues to grow. We shall also explore how it is being used to extend the extraordinary variety of machines created for our use and convenience. In the future as in the past, it will be the task of the engineer to discover new ways of doing things and to invent, design and make the new machines. All our experience suggests there are exciting prospects ahead that as yet we can hardly imagine.
