Synopsis

Master practical math and shipboard mechanics with clear, worked examples

This reference compiles practical mathematics and applied mechanics for seafarers.

It blends theory with shipboard techniques in navigation, steam, heat, and electricity, offering hands‑on methods you can use at sea. The book is organized into sections on mathematics, mechanics, navigation and nautical astronomy, heat and steam, and electricity, all illustrated with worked examples designed to be approachable for engineers and navigators alike.

Inside you’ll find realistic problems and step‑by‑step solutions that connect concepts to real maritime tasks. Expect a mix of graphical methods, calculations, and practice questions drawn from typical shipboard needs, from plotting courses to understanding forces, motion, and electrical systems.

  • Worked examples that reinforce practical skills for navigation, engines, heat transfer, and electrical work
  • Shipboard techniques and problem‑solving approaches grounded in real maritime scenarios
  • Structured sections on mathematics, applied mechanics, navigation, heat and steam, and electricity for comprehensive learning

Ideal for readers of nautical science, maritime engineering, and anyone preparing for hands‑on work at sea.
