It begins by introducing hovercraft types and their development and application throughout the world in the last three decades, before going on to discuss the theoretical aspects of ACV and SES craft covering their hovering performance, dynamic trim over calm water, resistance, stability, manoeuvrability, skirt configuration and analysis of forces acting on the skirts, ACV and SES seakeeping, and the methodology of scaling aerodynamic and hydrodynamic forces acting on the ACV 606 $aGround-effect machines 606 $aNaval architecture$vDesigns and plans 615 0$aGround-effect machines. 615 0$aNaval architecture 676 $a629.3 676 $a629.3 21 676 $a629.325 676 $a629.325 700 $aYun$b Liang$0627315 701 $aBliault$b Alan$0738978 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911004783203321 996 $aTheory and design of air cushion craft$91463908 997 $aUNINA
