Table of ContentsBasic ship hydrostatics Numerical integration in naval architecture Hydrostatic curves Statical stability at large angles of heel Simple models of stability Weight and trim calculations Intact stability regulations I Parametric resonance Intact stability regulations II Flooding and damage condition Linear ship response in waves Computer methodsReviewsThe hydrostatic approach to ship stability aims to balance idealized ship weight against buoyancy forces. This textbook is a complete guide to understanding ship hydrostatics in ship design and ship performance. Real life examples explain the theory and calculations. Offshore Engineer, October 2004 I found the book to be a thorough, well-referenced treatment of those areas of naval architecture it set out to cover. The subject matter is developed in a logical way as the reader progresses through the book. It will be very useful to those taking a degree or practising in the field. Eric Tupper, Author of Introduction to Naval Architecture, The Naval Architect, Feb 04 The book meets expectations of both academia and practice. This excellent textbook, which may also serve as reference throughout the professional career, deserves unrestricted recommendation and should soon be found on the bookshelf of any naval architect or mariner. Volker Bertram - author of Practical Ship Hydrodynamics and Ship Design for Efficiency and Economy The author guides readers from first principles though basic and applied hydostatic and ship stability theory, and introduced conteporary mathematical techniques for hydrostatic modeling and analysis Sea Technology, Nov 03 The hydrostatic approach to ship stability aims to balance idealized ship weight against buoyancy forces.
