Each chapter has a comprehensive list of aims and objectives at the start of the topic, followed by a check-list at the end of the topic for students to ensure that they have developed all the relevant skills before moving onto the next topic area. The book features over 170 worked examples with fully explained solutions, enabling students to work through the examples to build up their knowledge and develop the necessary key skills. The worked examples, which range in difficulty from very simple one-step solutions to SQA standard exam questions and above, are predominantly based on a hypothetical ship, with the reader supplied with extracts from a typical data book for the ship which replicates those found on real ships, enabling the reader to develop and practise real-life skills"--Abstract.Reeds marine engineering and technology ;1.Marine engineeringMathematicsTextbooksMarine engineeringMathematicsExaminations, questions, etcMarine engineersExaminationsStudy guidesMarine EngineeringMarine engineeringMathematicsMarine engineeringMathematicsMarine engineersExaminationsMarine Engineering770.95692Corner Kevin1824495Embleton William30090Embleton William30090Jackson Leslie1929-UkLoBPUkLoBPUkLoBPBOOK9911006552903321Mathematics for marine engineers4391651UNINA
