Overview

This book provides an historical view, from the beginnings of underwater travel up to modern underwater craft, of submarine design and construction, both civil and military. The author’s vast practical experience in the design and operation of submarines enabled him to present, comprehensively and clearly, the basic knowledge that the engineer, the naval officer, the operator of civil diving craft and the interested laymen need to understand the design and capability of submarines. With complete information on state-of-the-art submarine design, the book describes structural elements, the systems, individual technical procedures connected with submarines, crew installations, safety features and rescue equipment, demonstrating how a cross-section of almost all modern technology enters into submarine construction.
