Naval architects and those working in ship design need to understand these principles in depth. Marine engineers must likewise recognise the degree to which their activities are influenced and bounded by these principles. Finally, senior crew both Ships Engineers and Commanders need an understanding of the principles of naval architecture in order to properly fulfil their duties. This book offers a clear and concise introduction to the subject and is of great value to both students and practising professionals in all of the above fields. *Covers introductory level courses in Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering *Updated to cover key developments including double-hulled tankers *Fully revised fourth edition accompanied by exercises and worked solutions for the first time 533 $aElectronic reproduction.$bAmsterdam :$cElsevier Science & Technology,$d2007.$nMode of access: World Wide Web.$nSystem requirements: Web browser.$nTitle from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).$nAccess may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions 650 0$aNaval architecture 655 7$aElectronic books.$2local 776 1 $cOriginal$z0750665548$z9780750665544$w(DLC) 2005270184$w(OCoLC)57506538 856 40$3Referex$uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780750665544$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information 856 42$zPublisher description$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0626/2005270184-d.html 856 41$zTable of contents only$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0626/2005270184-t.html 907 $a.b1365360x$b03-03-22$c24-01-08 912 $a991003238869707536 996 $aIntroduction to naval architecture$91212944 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale026$b24-01-08$cm$d@ $e-$feng$gne $h0$i0
