Download or read book Merchant Ship Stability written by A.R. Lester and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Merchant Ship Stability presents the theory and application of methods for maintaining ship stability. It serves as a textbook for deck officers and first year degree students. The book discusses the methods of Simpson's rules for measuring ship form, the principle of floatation, finding the position of the center of gravity, and the effect of the center of gravity of the vessel not being on the centerline, the effect of having liquids within the vessel which are free to move and the effect of suspending weights. Topics on the assessment of stability of large angles of heel, regulations about merchant vessel stability, and dry docking and grounding are provided as well. Deck officers and merchant marine students will find the book very useful.

Download or read book Deck Officers and Masters Guide Volume 1 written by Richard Weinberg and published by . This book was released on 2018-10-05 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Further information on www.deckguide.net. Deck Officers and Masters guide is the ultimate STCW compliant handbook for Officers in Charge of a Navigational Watch, Masters and Chief Mates. The Volume 1 also fits with the needs of Officers in Charge of an Enegineering Watch, professionals other than seafarers operating in the maritime field, Naval Architecture/Engineer students or simply shipping enthusiasts. The subdivision of the topics makes the volumes extremely flexible for use in different fields, and the style and layout choices make the volumes particularly suitable for visual learning styles; in fact, more than 600 coloured pictures and drawings are provided.The theoretical notions are kept synthetic and direct as much as possible and are characterized by pragmatism and on-the-job vision in order to exclude the intervention of heavy mathematical considerations. In addition, the Volume 1 is provided with about 200 solved exercises and worked examples.The Deck Officers and Masters Guide, Volume 1 - Shipbuilding, Ship Stability and Ship Operations deals with the basics of shipbuilding, cargo handling, and the management of safety and environment issues in order to set out the fundamentals of what is required for a comprehensive mastery of all aspects related to ships as means of transport and to the management of ship operations. The Deck Officers and Masters Guide, Volume 1 - Shipbuilding, Ship Stability and Ship Operations is made up of six units dealing with Shipbuilding (Unit 1), Ship stability (Unit 2), Cargo handling (Unit 3), Safety and security management (Unit 4), Environment protection (Unit 5), Emergencies (Unit 6). The IMO system is outlined as a first element of the book, and frequent references to the relevant IMO conventions, codes and resolutions are provided in order to allow the reader to easily find the proper legislative requirements wherever more in-depth knowledge of specific topics is required.

Download or read book Ship Stability for Masters and Mates written by Capt D R Derrett and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1999-09-10 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This well-established textbook has been fully reviewed and updated by a new author to ensure a modern coverage of the contents in depth. A new unique introduction has been written, giving ship types together with their general characteristics, to indicate to the reader actual or typical sizes of modern day merchant vessels. Four new chapters have been added dealing with Ship Squat, the Deadweight scale, Interaction and The Trim and Stability book. A new section, on Draft Surveys, is included in the Appendices. In order to give the student a better understanding of ship strength, four smaller but more detailed chapters replace the chapter covering this subject area in the previous edition. Ship Stability, with respect to motions, can be defined as the ability of a ship to return to an initial condition after she has been subjected to disturbing forces and moments. Ship Stability can also exist with respect to materials stresses and forces, where it is the ability to return to an initial state after being subjected to external or internal forces. Careful attention has been paid to the basic principles of ship stability and ship strength. Included is a generous provision of worked examples and exercise questions with answers. These ensure that the maritime student who works through this book will have a clear grasp of the topics covered. Up-to-date syllabuses and recent examination papers are included at the end of this book.
