Fundamentals of Ship Hydrodynamics: Fluid Mechanics, Ship
Resistance and Propulsion Lothar Birk, University of New Orleans,
USA Bridging the information gap between fluid mechanics and ship
hydrodynamics Fundamentals of Ship Hydrodynamics is designed as a
textbook for undergraduate education in ship resistance and
propulsion. The book provides connections between basic training in
calculus and fluid mechanics and the application of hydrodynamics
in daily ship design practice. Based on a foundation in fluid
mechanics, the origin, use, and limitations of experimental and
computational procedures for resistance and propulsion estimates
are explained. The book is subdivided into sixty chapters,
providing background material for individual lectures. The
unabridged treatment of equations and the extensive use of figures
and examples enable students to study details at their own pace.
Key features: Covers the range from basic fluid mechanics to
applied ship hydrodynamics. Subdivided into 60 succinct chapters.
In-depth coverage of material enables self-study. Around 250
figures and tables. Fundamentals of Ship Hydrodynamics is essential
reading for students and staff of naval architecture, ocean
engineering, and applied physics. The book is also useful for
practicing naval architects and engineers who wish to brush up on
the basics, prepare for a licensing exam, or expand their
knowledge.
