Contenido:

The indispensable guide to naval architecture covers essential topics such as flotation and buoyancy, small angle, large angle and longitudinal stability, water density effects, bilging, ship propulsion, and advanced hydrostatics. Each chapter has a comprehensive list of aims and objectives at the start of the topic, fllowed by a checklist at the end of the topic for students to ensure that they have developed all the relevant skills before moving onto the next topic area.

The book features over 170 worked examples, ranging in difficulty from very simple one-step solutions to SQA standard exam questions and above, enabling students to build up their knowledge and developed the neccesary key skills. The appendices contain numerical proofs to support the working, to encourage more advanced students to study further.
