This book details the efforts to build a large naval vessel capable
of traveling at one hundred knots. It is the first book to
summarize this extensive work from historical and technical
perspectives. It explores the unique principles and challenges in
the design of high-speed marine craft. This volume explores
different hull form concepts, requiring an understanding of the
four forces affecting the lift and the drag of the craft. The four
forces covered are hydrostatic (buoyancy), hydro-dynamic,
aerostatic, and aerodynamic. This text will appeal to naval
researchers, architects, graduate students and historians, as well
as others generally interested in naval architecture and
propulsion.
