Bernard C. Boykin passed away May 12, 2011. He was born in Ruxton, Maryland in 1921.
He earned a BS degree in Chemistry from Williams College in 1942/43 and another BS degree in
Chemical Engineering from John Hopkins University in 1954. During World War II he was
a radar officer in the United States Navy. After the war he designed the Boykin RotaRule,
a very complex disk slide rule used by engineers and scientists for their calculations.
It was based on the Dempster's Rotarule design who's patent had expired,
but with improved scales. The trig scales are in decimal degrees.

The above circular slide rule belonged to Ben Emmerich (1922-2010). He was a
German aircraft engineer who in the course of his career helped develop
the Transall, the Starfighter, the Tornado and the Eurofighter. The
slide rule was donated in his memory by his family.

Made in USA. Designed by Emory C. Curtis ©1953.
Construction: 6-1/4 in Diameter Disks. 3 plastic disk with paper scales.
Front Scale: Frequency, Frequencing Ratio, Damping Ratio (Xm/Xo, Phase Angle Degrees)
Back Scale: Decibels, Aplitude Ratio, Damping Ratio, (Mp, Amplitude Deviation, Formulae)
Gift of Ellen Emmerich, Munich, Germany, in memory of her father Ben Emmerich.
Ellen Emmerich, his daughter, writes: "A friend of my father's in Minneapolis says:
'The slide rule you have is used to calculate the frequency response of control systems. Your Dad might have used it in his work on the VJ101. The graph on the bottom view is a Bode plot of a second order system. The slide rule would allow you to enter the damping ratio of the system and the trequency with which the system was being driven; and it woult tell you the ratio of the system output to its input. Examples of second order systems would be a spring suspended from a coiled spring. Another would be the servo actuators we used on the VJ101 to position the engine throttles.'"

Fearns Int'l Unit Conversions Calculator
ISRM 23.04.11.02
 Ted Baumen.was an immigrant from Holland who came across the Atlantic in 1953 on the USS United States.
He studyied to become an electrical engineer and ultimately worked for a large aerospace and building services company
in the US and Canada. Throughout his studies and his career, he used many slide rules for both mathematical calculations and US-Metric conversions.

Back Scale: Energy, Density, Pressure, Powr, Volume Flow, Heat Flow.
Original Owner:Ted Baumen (c1933- )
Gifted by Ted Baumen Jr. and Dawn Baumen.of University Park, Florida.
Cont'dHe was part of a team that worked on the electro-mechanical interface for the CF104 Fighter (built in Canada by Canadair under license from Lockheed)
which was a key element of the autopilot and auto pitch control systems. When Ted retired, he passed on his slide rules to his son, Ted Jr. a mechanical engineer, who had an interest in the elegance of these analog devices.
At that time, mathematical calculations were becoming much easier to do by calculators, however, slide rules for US-Metric conversions remained very helpful
(especially, in the absence of an on-line search tool to look up conversion factors). Ted jr. recalls: "I remember my father commenting that the slide rules gave him a more visual
sense of how calculations were done and an intuitive sense that the answer was correct. He fond of saying, 'no batteries required'".

Donated by the designer, N. Thomas Sheahan, Research Geologist, Layne Research Division, Memphis, TN
Sheahan writes: "About 1,000 of the circular Ground Water Hydrology Calculator slide rules were produced...
We had many of them printed with the names of the
various associated Layne firms, but some were left blank to allow personalization.
I continued to use this slide rule in the field and office from 1967 until the 1990s
when I was finally able to get an HP-100LX, the first hand-held calculator that could
solve this equation. Since then, I have had the slide rule as a wall decoration in my
office until I retired this year (2008)".

Donated by Nicolai Donchi, Monza, Italy in memory of his Grandfather Francis Donchi.
This artifact was found in the house of his Grandparents.
and was owned by his Grandfather.
Francis Donchi (1917-1993). Born in August 17, 1917 in Paina Brianza in Lombardy (Italy) where
he finished elementary school and for the next 7 years, helped his father, Francesco, in the fields.
At 18 he started working in a textile company on the banks of the River Lambro (Monza river) living modestly.
At age 22 he was drafted into the Italian Army where he served with honor for 4 years from 1939 to 1943.
After WWII he met his wife, who was a girl from his own village.
Francis received a 'gratitude of war' after a few years for a lung disease due to breathing the toxic smoke created by the war industries. Though
partially invalid he began a quiet life in Carate Brianza (Lombardy) and to have a child that carries on
the family name. Francis had a second job restoring furniture in his house, which had many
tools of the trade and where this slide rule was discovered after his death at age 76.
