This book is based on a course of Ship Hydrostatics delivered during a quarter of a
century at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering of the Technion-Israel Institute
of Technology. The book reflects the author's own experience in design and R&D
and incorporates improvements based on feedback received from students.
The book is addressed in the first place to undergraduate students for whom
it is a first course in Naval Architecture or Ocean Engineering. Many sections
can be also read by technicians and ship officers. Selected sections can be used
as reference text by practising Naval Architects.
Definitions, principal dimensions
Basic ship hydrostatics
Numerical integration in naval architecture
Hydrostatic curves
Statical stability at large angles of heel
Simple models of stability
Weight and trim calculations
Intact stability regulations I
Parametric resonance
Intact stability regulations II
Flooding and damage condition
Linear ship response in waves
Computer methods
