Ship Resistance and Propulsion is dedicated to providing a comprehensive and modern scientific approach to evaluating ship resistance and propulsion. The study of propulsive power enables the size and mass of the propulsion engines to be established and estimates made of the fuel consumption and likely operating costs. This book, written by experts in the field, includes the latest developments…
In this book an introduction is given to aspects of water waves that play a role in ship hydrodynamics and offshore engineering
The technology of hydrodynamic modeling and marine craft motion control systems has progressed greatly in recent years. This timely survey includes the latest tools for analysis and design of advanced guidance, navigation and control systems and presents new material on underwater vehicles and surface vessels. Each section presents numerous case studies and applications, providing a practical u…
Stability is a difficult concept to define. The idea of a stable character is readily grasped, although it is harder to put into words. The same applies to the notion of a stable ship, as stability is an intangible and complex entity.
Piping Calculations Manual is packed with the formulas, examples, calculations, and practical tips required to smoothly move gas or liquids through long-distance as well as short pipe segments, assess the feasibility of improving existing pipeline performance, and design new systems.
