Each entry within this dictionary is akin to a nautical star, guiding readers through the dense fog of maritime jargon towards the clarity of comprehension. The Dictionary of Maritime is far more than a mere collection of definitions; it's a lighthouse illuminating the path for those sailing the tumultuous seas of maritime studies. Whether you are a seasoned mariner, a maritime law scholar, a naval architect, or an oceanography student, this dictionary is designed to bridge the gap between the arcane and the understood, between obscurity and clarity. This book is not merely a passive repository of maritime terms but an active engagement with the rich tapestry of maritime knowledge. Each term, each phrase is a portal into a vast world that has shaped, and continues to shape, the course of human history. The terms encapsulated within these pages are buoy markers on your journey through the expansive waters of maritime understanding. Our endeavor is to foster a shared lexicon, a common ground of understanding that can enhance communication, collaboration, and comprehension across the myriad sectors within the maritime domain. By doing so, we aspire to contribute to the safety, efficiency, and evolution of the maritime world. As you delve into the pages of The Dictionary of Maritime, you are embarking on a voyage of discovery.

Download or read book Ship Dynamics for Performance Based Design and Risk Averse Operations written by Spyros Hirdaris and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-04-07 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than a century and half ago, William Froude and his son Robert [1,2] conducted the first scientifically designed towing tank experiments using scaled ship models traveling in calm water or waves. Since then, advances in mathematics and technology have led to the development of various methods for the assessment of the dynamic behavior of ships. Yet, as we enter the 2nd decade of the 21st century the advent of goal-based regulations and the emergence of safe and sustainable shipping standards still confront our ability to understand the fundamentals and assure absolute ship safety in design and operations. To instigate renewed interest in the well-rehearsed subject of ship dynamics this Special Issue presents a collection of 12 high-quality research contributions with a focus on the prediction and analysis of the dynamic behavior of ships in a stochastic environment. The papers presented are co-authored by leading subject matter experts from Europe, the Far East, and the USA. These papers will be of interest to academics, practitioners, and regulators involved in the progression of ship science, technical services, and safety standards.
