Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates how to make ships more efficient and stable, with reduced drag and resistance. Through a series of illustrated experiments, the author examines the impact of different factors on a ship's speed and safety, from the shape of the hull and its midship section to the form of the bows and stern. The author includes discussions on elements such as resistance and lateral resistance, along with stability, and how to optimize each. The author also provides insight into the significance of different variables in propulsion, such as weight, length, and width. Readers interested in shipbuilding and design will find this book a useful resource. The author clearly lays out the practical parameters of water resistance and its impact on ships.
