Hydrodynamics of High-Performance Marine Vessels

	This is a comprehensive two-volume set of books devoted to the hydrodynamics of high-performance marine vessels. These vessels may also be generally referred to as high-speed or advanced marine craft. Types of craft addressed include monohulls, catamarans, trimarans and other multihull vessels, air-cushion vehicles, surface-effect ships and planing craft. The hydrodynamic aspects dealt with are the steady-state resistance, wave generation, sinkage and trim, unsteady effects and motions in waves. Separate chapters are devoted to viscous resistance, transom sterns and the behavior of skirts for air-cushion vehicles and seals for surface-effect ships. Effects of the finite depth of the water and the possible lateral restriction on the width of the waterway feature prominently in the books. In each case, the presentation includes a full analytical development of the theory accompanied by a comparison of the theoretical predictions with extensive experimental data. In the two volumes there is a total of 888 full-color Letter-size pages. The text is accompanied by 433 photographs of ships and ship models, 1155 graphs, 1295 equations and 1249 references. The work represents the author's research, consulting and professional experience in both universities and research centers spanning a period of over fifty years. The books are targeted at university-level students and specialized industry engineers in the field of naval architecture and associated areas. Purchase Volume 1 Purchase Volume 2

The Practical Design of Advanced Marine Vehicles

	This text provides an introductory familiarity with the naval architecture of Advanced Marine Vehicles, with particular emphasis on Catamaran, SES and SWATH types. It is intended as a textbook in advanced marine vehicle design, for a 13-week elective in Naval Architecture at the Senior undergraduate level. As such, it is assumed that the students have a working familiarity with the naval architecture of conventional ships, and thus this work emphasizes the differences between conventional-ship design and AMV-design. The text is focused on early-stage design, providing the tools for preliminary ship sizing in order to evaluate whether the AMV is the appropriate ship type for the mission. It also includes discussion of the particular features and benefits of the major AMV types, so that you can decide when one AMV type might be preferable over another. The book begins with an overview of the types of AMVs. This is followed by discussions of each of the ‘nodes’ of the ship design spiral, e.g. Resistance, Propulsion, Structural Design, Arrangement, Maneuvering, etc. Appropriate to being an overview type of course at the undergraduate level, this book does not provide a detailed treatment of any of the hydrodynamic or mechanical dynamic nuances of high speed vessel design. Instead I present design lanes and overall guidance, such that a practitioner can execute a reasonable early-stage design. Tackling of specific detailed problems that may come up within such a design exercise may require recourse to more detailed texts, and appropriate references and citations are provided herein. This text is the result of the author’s 35 years as a practitioner in the design of advanced marine vehicles. Purchase

T&R Bulletin [3-11] Marine Steam Power Plant Heat Balance Practices by Panel M-15 (Heat Balance)(1996)

	In January 1958, Panel M-15 (Heat Balance) of the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers Technical and Research (T&R) program was formed to investigate the possibility of standardizing the assumptions and allowances and methods of treatment of heat balance calculations. The result of the Panel's work was published in November 1961 as Technical and Research Bulletin No. 3-11, "Recomended Practices for Preparing Marine Steam Power Plant Heat Balances" and found universal acceptance in service. However, the need for additional practices relating to sea trial was soon evidant and the Panel in January 1968 prepared T&R Bulletin No. 3-17, "Recomended Practices for Correcting Steam Power Plant Trial Performances." Changing practices and increasing capability of marine steam power plants necessitated the revision of Bulletin No. 3-11 which was prepared under contract from the Society in 1971 under Panel's guidance. 133 pages ♦ Soft Cover ♦ 1 lb Purchase Book List: $90.00 ♦ Members: $60.00 ♦ Student Members: $45.00 Click here to search for other T&R Bulletins and Reports

A Chronology of Boating on the Navesink River

A Chronology of Boating on the Navesink River by Hendrik F. van Hemmen (2010)

	In this baby coffee table book, SNAME Fellow Rik van Hemmen describes the chronology of boating on the Navesink River. The book is a tour through time of a small river in New Jersey both in pictures and in words, but also provides a vivid picture of how people interact with the water depending on their economic circumstances, their geographical location or their available resources. The book reinforces that naval architecture is deeply woven into a society's structure and that naval architects cannot ignore humanity's connection with the water, just like architects cannot ignore humanity's connection with the land. Naval architecture exists in canoes, aircraft carriers and tankers alike, and while the aircraft carriers may provide the bread and butter, the canoes provide the next generation of naval architects. 100 pages ♦ ISBN 978-1-4507-5192-6 ♦ Soft Cover ♦ 1 lb Purchase Book List: $35.00 ♦ Members: $30.00 ♦ Student Members: $30.00

Battleship Bismark - A Design and Operational History

Battleship Bismark - A Design and Operational History
William H. Garzke Jr., Robert O. Dulin Jr., and William Jurens with James Cameron (2019)

Battleship Bismarck - A Design and Operational History

Drawing on survivors' accounts and the authors' combined decades of experience in naval architecture, Battleship Bismarck is a marine forensics analysis and engineering study of the design, operational career, and loss of Germany's greatest battleship. This investigation is the result of fifty-six years of painstaking research, during which the authors conducted extensive interviews and correspondence with the ships' designers and survivors of the Battle of Denmark Strait and Bismarck's final battle. Albert Schnarke, former gunnery officer of DKM Tirpitz, sister ship of Bismarck, aided greatly by translating and circulating early manuscript materials to those who participated in the design and operation of Bismarck. Survivors of Bismarck's engagements actively contributed to this comprehensive study, including Vice Admiral (then Lieutenant) D. B. H. Wildish (RN), damage control officer aboard HMS Prince of Wales, who located photographs of battle damage to his ship.

After the wreck of Bismarck was discovered in June 1989, the authors served as technical consultants to Dr. Robert Ballard, who led three trips to the site. Filmmaker and explorer James Cameron provides a comprehensive overview of his deep-sea explorations of Bismarck, illustrated with his team's remarkable photographs of the shipwreck.

The result of these nearly six decades of research and collaboration is an engrossing and encyclopedic account of the events surrounding one of the most epic naval battles of World War II. Battleship Bismarck has finally resolved some of the major questions such as: Who sank Bismarck, the British or the Germans?

Principles of Naval Architecture Series: The Geometry of Ships

Principles of Naval Architecture Series: The Geometry of Ships
by John Letcher Edited by J. Randolph Paulling (2009)

	Principles of Naval Architecture Series: The Geometry of Ships by John Letcher Edited by J. Randolph Paulling (2009) Although there are still practitioners of the traditional art of manual fairing of ship lines, the geometry of most hull forms ranging from small yachts to the largest commercial and naval ships are now almost invariably developed using one of the commercially available hull modeling software packages. Such software normally includes, in addition to the hull modeling and display functions, routines for the computation of hydrostatics, stability and other hull properties. It may form a part of a comprehensive computer-based design and manufacturing system or it may be included in a shipboard computer-based operational system used for cargo load monitoring and damage control. The present volume presents first, the theoretical basis for these hull modeling systems and second, the procedures for computing hull geometric, buoyancy and other properties by mathematical methods utilizing such models. The emphasis is upon the nomenclature and fundamentals underlying several different methods of hull geometrical modeling with the intention of providing the understanding needed to use intelligently both existing and future tools. Some topics included in the volume are continuity and fairness of surfaces, B-spline and NURBS representation, ruled and developable surfaces, subdivision surfaces, and classic computational topics such as hydrostatic properties and initial stability. This is a subject area characterized by a continuing stream of innovation and new software products so the objective here is to present the basis needed to understand and keep abreast of new developments in the field. 58 pages ♦ ISBN: 0-939773-67-1, ♦ Soft Cover ♦ 1 lb * Replaces Chapter 1 in PNA Volume I: Stability and Strength Purchase Book List: $55.00 ♦ Members: $35.00 ♦ Student Members: $30.00 Complete Set List: $297.00 ♦ Members: $196.00 ♦ Student Members: $166.00

Principles of Naval Architecture Series: Ship Resistance & Flow

Principles of Naval Architecture: Ship Resistance & Flow
by Lars Larsson & Hoyte C. Raven (2010)

The Principles of Naval Architecture series is the defining reference work and text for naval architecture. This volume contains a completely new presentation of the subject of ship resistance embodying these developments. A major goal in the design of virtually all vessels is to obtain a hull form having low resistance. In achieving this goal, the accurate prediction of resistance for a given hull geometry is essential. Since the publication of the previous edition of PNA important advances have been made in theoretical and computational fluid dynamics accompanied by increased use of such work in ship and offshore structure design.

The first section of the book provides basic understanding of the flow phenomena that underlie the resistance encountered by a ship moving in water. The second section contains an introduction to the methods by which that knowledge is applied to the prediction of resistance, including model testing, empirical methods and computational methods. A final section provides guidance to the naval architect in designing a hull form. Design procedures are described for achieving favorable flow and resistance characteristics of the hull and appendages. Examples are given for ships designed for high, medium and low speeds. Design considerations affecting both wave and viscous effects are included. Finally the flow in the stern wake is discussed, an area important for both resistance and propeller performance.

Principles of Naval Architecture Series: Strength of Ships and Ocean Structures

Principles of Naval Architecture Series: Strength of Ships and Ocean Structures
by Alaa Mansour and Don Liu, Edited by J. Randolph Paulling (2008)

This new revised volume on Strength of Ships and Ocean Structures addresses several topics of ship strength in greater depth than in the previous edition of PNA, bringing much of the material up to date and introducing some new subjects. There is extensive coverage of the latest developments in dynamic sea load predictions, including nonlinear load effects, slamming and impact plus new sections on the mechanics of collisions and grounding. The incorporation of the various loadings in structural design and analysis is covered including long term extreme and cumulative fatigue effects. There is a more extensive treatment of strength analysis using finite element methods than was included in the previous edition. Ultimate strength evaluation of the hull girder and components is covered and there is a section on structural safety assessment applying reliability concepts including fatigue effects. Particular attention is given to problems encountered in ships of special type and size that have been developed in recent years, many of which, by reason of size, configuration or lack of a history of design experience, require a design approach based on first principles. Modern developments in classification society strength standards and modern rule developments are covered including Common Structural Rules for tankers and bulk carriers. The concluding sections discuss materials other than steel, including composites and aluminum, and vessels of unusual geometry and performance such as multihulls, hydrofoils, and SWATH craft.

by William S. Vorus Edited by J. Randolph Paulling (2010)

Principles of Naval Architecture series is the defining reference work and text for naval architecture. This volume presents the principles underlying analysis of the vibration characteristics of modern seagoing ships and the application of those principles in design and problem solving.

The classical continuous beam model with steady state response to periodic excitation is presented first. This includes natural frequencies, mode shapes and modal expansion. Discrete analysis is next presented based upon finite element principles. Examples are discussed involving analysis of the entire ship and component parts, e.g., the deckhouse. There are sections on vibration surveys, sea trials, acceptable vibration standards and criteria. Concluding sections treat methods of remediation of vibration problems that are found after the ship is completed, including modifications to propeller design, structure and machinery.

Ship Production

Ship Production by Richard Lee Storch, Colin P. Hammon, Howard McRaven Bunch, and Richard C. Moore (1995)

	In 1982 the leaders of the national Shipbuilding Research Program (NSRP) recognized the need for greater focus on shipbuilding education; the result was the establishment of an education panel (SP-9) within the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers Ship Production Committee-the implementation arm of the NSRP. The first project authorized by the panel was a textbook on advanced concepts of ship production. This edition was revised in 1995 to update the contents to be consistent with technological advances made since the book’s publication in 1988. The focus of this book is state-of-the-art technology and its application to the principals and practices of shipbuilding employing group technology. The authors present a system aimed at optimizing productivity in shipbuilding under current technological conditions. Also included are chapters devoted to basic manufacturing and construction processes and the design for production and CAD/CAM applications. The book is suitable for the upperclass undergraduate and graduate courses, as well as serving as a valuable resource for practicing shipbuilding professionals. Chapte one contains history of shipbuilding and statistics relating to production and market share. Chapter two has been expanded to more directly incorporate material relating to shipbuilding economic theory. Chapter four contains new material, which relates to the fabrication process. New material has been added to Chapter five to more accurately reflect the conditions of current ship production facilities. Chapter six (Ship Design and Engineering), Chapter seven (Planning, Scheduling and Production Control), and Chapter eight (Accuracy Control) have all been updated to reflect the impact of computers on these important areas. Chapter nine (Ship Conversion, Overhaul, and Repair) has been totally rewritten to reflect the experiences of a major consulting firm that has extensively supported shipyards in improvement of their conversion and repair operations. 420 pages ♦ ISBN 0-939773-57-0 ♦ Soft Cover ♦ 2 lbs Purchase Book List: $110.00 ♦ Members: $65.00 ♦ Student Members: $49.00

Ship Structural Analysis and Design

Ship Structural Analysis and Design by Owen Hughes and Jeom Kee Paik (2010)

	Thorough, clear and informative, Ship Structural Design focuses on the most complex aspects of ship structural design — preliminary design. While concept and detail design are concerned with overall requirements and standard formats, it is in preliminary design — the sizing of all of the ship’s principal structural members — that the structural designer has the largest number of significant decisions and options, and the greatest scope for the optimizing the design. The text uses a rationally-based design approach (design from first principles), which is ideally suited to preliminary structural design. One of the advantages of this approach is that, unlike all earlier design methods, it applies to all types of ships. Moreover, this approach allows the designer to achieve an optimum structure, according to his own particular measure of merit, such as least life-cycle cost, least weight, or any combination of these. As in the original book, the underlying theory has been verified through extensive testing and implemented in MAESTRO, a leading ship structural design program.
