BERNOULLI, Daniel. Hydrodynamica, sive de viribus et motibus fluidorum commentarii, Strassburg: Johann Reinhold Dulsecker, 1738. 4°, title printed in red and black, large engraved title-vignette, 12 folding plates and one headpiece, all after Johann Martin Weis, woodcut initials (Bb2 misbound, waterstain and 2 scored inscriptions on title, lightly browned throughout), contemporary calf, gilt decorated spine (upper and lower compartment of spine damaged, very rubbed). FIRST EDITION. Norman 215.
The work contains Bernoulli's formulae for calculating the velocity, duration and quantity of liquid issuing from an opening in a container. It also contains chapters on water oscillations, a theory of machinery (including an extensive treatment of the screw of Archimedes), and an important section which introduces his kinetic gas theory. The penultimate chapter states Bernoulli's famous equation, now used in hydraulics and fluid dynamics.
