Modeling Ships and Space Craft: The Science and Art of Mastering
the Oceans and Sky begins with the theories of Aristotle and
Archimedes, moving on to examine the work of Froude and Taylor, the
early aviators and the Wright Brothers, Goddard and the other
rocket men, and the computational fluid dynamic models of our time.
It examines the ways each used fluid dynamic principles in the
design of their vessels. In the process, this book covers the
history of hydrodynamic (aero and fluid) theory and its progression
- with some very accessible science examples - including seminal
theories. Hydrodynamic principles in action are also explored with
examples from nature and the works of man. This is a book for
anyone interested in the history of technology - specifically the
methods and science behind the use of scale models and hydrodynamic
principles in the marine and aeronautical designs of today.
