Ship Hydrostatics and Stability is a complete guide to understanding ship hydrostatics in ship design and ship performance‎,‎ taking you from first principles through basic and applied theory to contemporary mathematical techniques for hydrostatic modeling and analysis‎.‎ Real life examples of the practical application of hydrostatics are used to explain the theory and calculations using MATLAB and Excel‎.‎ The new edition of this established resource takes in recent developments in naval architecture‎,‎ such as parametric roll‎,‎ the effects of non‎-linear motions on stability and the influence of ship lines‎,‎ along with new international stability regulations‎.‎ Extensive reference to computational techniques is made throughout and downloadable MATLAB files accompany the book to support your own hydrostatic and stability calculations‎.‎ The book also includes definitions and indexes in French‎,‎ German‎,‎ Italian and Spanish to make the material as accessible as possible for international readers‎.‎
