Elements of Ship Dynamics and Hydromechanics/Элементы динамики судна и гидромеханики

Издание на английском языке
This publication is devoted to vessel dynamics and its performance in rough seas. The book covers resistance, thrust, steering and stabilizing systems, the fundamentals of wave mechanics, sea wave statistics, ship motion, wave loads, and seaworthiness analysis methods. Model testing, in-kind measurements, additional resistance in rough seas, maneuverability, and the application of probabilistic methods in marine calculations are covered separately.
