Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Design and Construction of Ships, Vol. 1: Vol; 1. Calculation and Strength This book is the written word of many years of lecturing in Glasgow University. As these lectures have never been written as they were delivered, and as new matter was necessarily added to the lectures as it became available, the chapters of this book do not represent any one systematic series of lectures, though there is little in the book but what has been given at some time to the students. The process of writing such a book is very dissimilar to that of writing most books. Much of it at first was collected from lecture notes by one or other of my assistants. These collections were elaborated, modified, rewritten in parts, and finally corrected in the form in which they now appear. In the collecting and correcting process 1 was continually helped by my assistants and students, but the bulk of the assistance was given me by Mr J. G. Johnstone, B. Sc., to whom I am indebted for saving me a great deal of detail work in the collection of what I have given from time to time in my lectures. Some of the calculations were made by students of the Naval Architecture Class. This book cannot possibly lay any large claim to originality. The greater part is necessarily the work of others who went before or who are now working for the advancement of the science of Naval Architecture. Very little attempt has been made to acknowledge the sources of such help. The subject is too wide to attempt to acknowledge all the sources, oven if one were qualified to do so. But there are parts which arc original work given for the first time in the lecture-room, though some has been already published, mostly in the Transactions of the Institution of Naval Architects. The subject is developing year by year, and often so rapidly as to make it very difficult, if not almost impossible, to read all that is published on the subject. There are further stores of knowledge which are never published, and are only accessible to individuals associated with the shipbuilding establishments, in which much expense is incurred in investigations and experiments for the advancement of knowledge of the subject.

Book excerpt: In the past three centuries the ship has developed from the relatively unsophisticated sail-driven vessel which would have been familiar to the sailors of the Tudor navy, to the huge motor-driven container ships, nuclear submarines and vast cruise liners that ply our seas today. Who were the innovators and builders who, during that span of time, prompted and instigated the most significant advances?In the past three centuries the ship has developed from the relatively unsophisticated sail-driven vessel which would have been familiar to the sailors of the Tudor navy, to the huge motor-driven container ships, nuclear submarines and vast cruise liners that ply our seas today. Who were the innovators and builders who, during that span of time, prompted and instigated the most significant advances?In this new book the author describes the lives and deeds of more the 120 great engineers, scientists, philosophers, businessmen, shipwrights, naval architects and inventors who shaped ship design and shipbuilding world wide. Covering the story chronologically, and going back briefly even to Archimedes, such well-known names as Anthony Deane, Peter the Great, James Watt, Robert Fulton and Isambard Kingdom Brunel share space with lesser known characters like the luckless Frederic Sauvage, a pioneer of screw propulsion who, unable to interest the French navy in his tests in the early 1830s, was bankrupted and landed in debtors prison. With the inclusion of such names as Ben Lexcen, the Australian yacht designer who developed the controversial winged keel for the 1983 Americas Cup, the story is brought right up to date.Concise linking chapters place all these innovators in context so that a clear and fascinating history of the development of ships and shipbuilding emerges from the pages. An original and important new reference book.
