Ship Resistance and Propulsion provides a comprehensive approach to
evaluating ship resistance and propulsion. Informed by applied
research, including experimental and CFD techniques, this book
provides guidance for the practical estimation of ship propulsive
power for a range of ship types. Published standard series data for
hull resistance and propeller performance enables practitioners to
make ship power predictions based on material and data contained
within the book. Fully worked examples illustrate applications of the
data and powering methodologies; these include cargo and container
ships, tankers and bulk carriers, ferries, warships, patrol craft,
work boats, planing craft and yachts. The book is aimed at a broad
readership including practising naval architects and marine engineers,
seagoing officers, small craft designers, undergraduate and
postgraduate students. Also useful for those involved in
transportation, transport efficiency and ecologistics who need to
carry out reliable estimates of ship power requirements.
