Born in Washington in 1917, Wood served as a Women's Airforce Service Pilot in World War II, and flew a military surplus airplane to Alaska in 1946. Settling in Fairbanks, she went on to co-found Camp Denali, Alaska's first wilderness ecotourism lodge; helped start the Alaska Conservation Society, the state's first environmental organization; and applied her love of the outdoors to her work as a backcountry guide and an advocate for trail construction a.Oral history series.Women conservationistsAlaskaBiographyConservationistsAlaskaBiographyWomen adventurersAlaskaBiographyWilderness areasAlaskaOral historyAlaskaAlaskaDescription and travelAlaskaEnvironmental conditionsWomen conservationistsConservationistsWomen adventurersWilderness areasOral history639.9092BWood Ginny1474672Brewster Karen1173703MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910779103403321Boots, bikes, and bombers3688460UNINA03947nam 22006371 450 991078957650332120230803033059.03-03813-967-X(CKB)3710000000025429(EBL)1873041(SSID)ssj0001042007(PQKBManifestationID)11661761(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001042007(PQKBWorkID)11049721(PQKB)11636532(Au-PeEL)EBL1873041(CaPaEBR)ebr10777655(OCoLC)897641149(MiAaPQ)EBC1873041(EXLCZ)99371000000002542920130327h20132013 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAdvanced materials in machine design special topic volume with invited peer reviewed papers only /edited by A.

Depending on the scale at which they are analyzed and used, we can talk about composites, nano-composites, nano-materials and intelligent materials, e.g. such as piezoelectric materials, magneto-restrictive materials, functional (Shape Memory Alloys) materials. The efficient and effective use of materials in design applications is directly connected with the good knowledge of the static and fatigue strengths of the material.
