This textbook is a complete guide to understanding ship hydrostatics in ship design and ship performance. Adrian Biran guides readers from first principles through basic and applied hydrostatic and ship stability theory, and introduces contemporary mathematical techniques for hydrostatic modelling and analysis. Real life examples of the practical application of hydrostatics are used to explain the theory and calculations; and to illustrate the effect shifting weights and central 606 $aShips$xHydrodynamics 606 $aStability of ships 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aShips$xHydrodynamics. 615 0$aStability of ships. 676 $a623.81 700 $aBiran$b Adrian$027477 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455738403321 996 $aShip hydrostatics and stability$91212911 997 $aUNINA
