Description: -- Covers the most recent developments in the field of naval architecture
-- Appendices provide helpful calculations to solve common problems such as flooding and cross curves
-- Real life examples and exercises give students the opportunity to practice what they have learnt from their reading

This up-to-date text considers the most recent developments in the field of naval architecture. New areas of interest covered in detail include the theory of parametric resonance (also known as the Mathieu effect), the effects of nonlinear motions on stability, the use of computers and new stability regulations for small vessels.

Short tutorials cover the following topics and are designed to aid learning in a practical environment:

1. 3D, colored visualization of ship lines, definitions of co-efficients of form, influence of waves on stability.

2. The influence on stability of the displacements of the center of gravity and of weights.

3. Simulation of uncoupled ship roll without and with hanging loads or free liquid surfaces.

4. Simulation of uncoupled roll in waves.

5. Interactive definition of simple hull surfaces and hydrostatic calculations.
