More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Ship Resistance and Propulsion is dedicated to providing a comprehensive and modern scientific approach to evaluating ship resistance and propulsion. This book, written by experts in the field, includes the latest developments from applied research, including those in experimental and CFD techniques, and provides guidance for the practical estimation of ship propulsive power for a range of ship types. A large number of fully worked examples are included to illustrate applications of the data and powering methodologies; these include cargo and container ships, tankers and bulk carriers, ferries, warships, patrol craft, work boats, planing craft and yachts. The book is aimed at a broad readership including practising naval architects and marine engineers, seagoing officers, small craft designers, undergraduate and postgraduate degree students. It should also appeal to others involved in transportation, transport efficiency and eco-logistics who need to carry out reliable estimates of ship power requirements.

A naval architect's view

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
The authors have collected and organized virtually all of the public domain data regarding ship resistance and propulsion of marine surface vessels into one significant reference book. It is a reference library in one volume. It will be of value to students and practicing designers who have limited access to a technical reference sources regarding surface ships and small craft.
