- Synopsis
- This book presents various aspects of Ship Manoeuvrability in a form that can be understood without undue effort. Beginning with the equations of motion, the book describes the main manoeuvring mathematical models with their application in the numerical simulation of various manoeuvres. The other topics covered in the book range from manoeuvring model tests and full-scale trials through rudder hydrodynamics and design to manoeuvring standards and guidelines. This book also discusses ship autopilots and dynamic positioning. Finally, it provides a description of unconventional rudders and propulsion devices used for manoeuvring. The book has more than 180 figures to explain various concepts and 40 exercises with partial solutions to confirm that the reader has understood the subject. The book also includes recent developments in the subject and can be a valuable reference for beginners, researchers, and professionals interested in the field.
