The Geometry of Ships/Геометрия кораблей

Издание на английском языке
The publication covers modern advances in ship design and construction, emphasizing the importance of computational methods and technologies such as finite elements and computational fluid dynamics. It aims to provide the fundamentals and principles necessary to understand and use modern analytical and numerical tools in marine architecture. The book is not a reference book or textbook, but serves as a resource for students and professionals seeking to develop intuition and experience in the field of shipbuilding. The publication also discusses the transition to the metric measurement system and modern methods of modeling body shapes, focusing on the basic principles to provide understanding rather than just instructions.
