Book
Soft cover. Condition: New. Reprint. Society of Naval Architects: 1996. Reprint. Trade paperback, 140 pp. This book presents the small boat designer and builder with a basic insight into the nature of fiberglass as a boatbuilding material, as well as a sound, yet simple, approach to analyzing fiberglass boat hull structures. A thorough review is given to the characteristics of fiberglass materials and laminate design properties. In addition, valuable data is presented on basic design principles such as selection of structural loads, safety factors, deflection and vibration limitation. The level of detail presented in this book is tuned to the boat designer who recognizes the need for a sound engineering analysis of the fiberglass structures, tempered with a practical, uncomplicated approach. The book is well illustrated and includes numerous stepbystep design examples. New.

Book
Trade Paperback. Condition: New. Reprint. This report recommends that ships and offshore platforms be designed to survive encounters with Type I and Type II extreme waves. The existence and characteristics of these waves and the storm conditions that produce them are established. Photographic and other evidence is presented and analyzed. Current design practice is reviewed, and certain casualties that reveal its failure to ensure survivability are examined. Design and test procedures are proposed. A case is made for replicating Type I and II extreme waves in test tanks, because of the predominance of severe impact loadings and the ensuing time dependent, nonlinear loads and motions. Elements of a first principles design methodology are defined. The development of an appropriate seakeeping design specification is recommended.

Cloth. Condition: New. Reprint. Cloth binding, 239 pp. By providing an understanding of the basic concepts of naval architecture, this book is the perfect companion for the maritime professional who is not a naval architect, but needs to be able to communicate effectively with naval architects. Written in engaging and easily understood terms, this book concentrates on two aspects of naval architecture: design and analysis. Technical discussions are almost entirely qualitative rather than quantitative and coverage focuses on conventional ships and boats while answering questions about such matters as the proposed vessels seaworthiness, structural integrity, powering requirements and functional capability.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Reprint. Reprint. Hardcover binding, 361 pp. As with all branches of engineering, naval architecture is changing dramatically as a result of modern technology. Because of the rate of change, new texts are required not only by those beginning a career in the profession but also by those already involved who wish to keep their knowledge updated. This book is intended as an introduction to naval architecture. It sets out to educate those who need some knowledge of the subject in their work, as well as those who work in design offices and production organizations associated with the maritime sector. New.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Reprint. Reprint. Hardcover binding, 350 pp. Ocean engineering is a relatively new engineering discipline whose future is linked to mankind's need to use natural energy and mineral resources beneath the sea's surface. It is only recently that authoritative books and references are available in this discipline for use by practitioners in industry and for academic instruction. This text addresses the application of engineering principles for the analysis, design, development and management of systems that must function in a water environment. New.

Book
Soft cover. Condition: New. Reprint. Reprint. 8vo. Soft cover. 420 pp. The focus of this book is state-of-the-art technology and its application to the principals and practices of shipbuilding employing group technology. The authors present a system aimed at optimizing productivity in shipbuilding under current technological conditions. Also included are chapters devoted to basic manufacturing and construction processes and the design for production and CAD/CAM applications. The book is suitable for the upper-class undergraduate and graduate courses, as well as serving as a valuable resource for practicing shipbuilding professionals. This important text was also co-authorized by four authorities in the field: Richard L. Storch, Associate Professor at the University of Washington; Colin P. Hammon, Consultant, Institute for Defense Analysis; Howard M. Bunch, NavSea Professor Emeritus; and Richard C. Moore, Professor at the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute. New.

Trade Paperback. Condition: New. Reprint. Reprint. Trade paperback, 591 pp. This 2005 edition combines the original 1995 version and the Plate Bending Supplement under one cover. It presents the fundamental and essential aspects of rationally-based preliminary ship structural design in a complete and unified treatment. It also presents a methodology design that is practical, efficient and versatile and that has already been implemented in a computer program, tested and proven. The book is self-contained in that it covers all the basic aspects of rationally-based design that are required by a designer, such as frame analysis, finite element theory, statistical production of wave loads, as well as new techniques for structural modeling and the method for alternate strength analysis of a hull model.
