Barrass. monographic eng 1 online resource (xiv, 534 pages) : illustrations Understanding ship stability is critical for all maritime students or professionals who are studying for a deck or engineering certificate of competency, or seeking promotion to a higher rank within any branch of the merchant marine or Navy. The sixth edition of the now classic 'Ship Stability' provides a comprehensive introduction to all aspects of ship stability and ship strength, squat, interaction and trim, materials stresses and forces. * The market leading ship stability text, widely used at sea and on shore * New content includes coverage of now-mandatory double-skin tankers and fast ferries * Meets STCW (Standards of Training, Certification & Watchkeeping) requirements and includes self-examination material: essential reading for professionals and students alike. Linking Ship Stability and Ship Motions: Forces and Moments; Centroids and the centre of gravity; Density and specific gravity; Laws of flotation; Effect of density on draft and displacement; Transverse statical stability; Effect of free surface of liquids on stability; TPC and displacement curves; Form coefficients; Simpsons Rules for areas and centroids; Second moments of areas; Calculating KB, BM and Metacentric Diagrams; Final KG twenty reasons for a rise in G; Angle of List; Moments of statical stability; Trim or longitudinal stability; Stability and hydrostatic curves; Increase in draft due to list; Water pressure; Combined list and trim; Calculating the effect of free surface of liquids (FSE); Bilging and permeability; Dynamical stability; Effect of beam and freeboard on stability; Effects of side winds on stability; Icing allowances -- effects on trim and stability; Floodable and Permissible length curves; Tabular and assigned Freeboard Marks; Timber ship Freeboard marks; IMO Grain Rules and angle of list; Angle of Loll; True mean draft; The Inclining Experiment or Stability Test; Effect of trim on tank soundings; Drydocking and grounding; Liquid pressure and thrust -- Centres of pressure; Ship squat; Interaction; Heel due to turning; Rolling, pitching and heaving motions; Synchronous rolling and Parametric rolling of ships; List due to bilging side compartments; Effect of change of density on draft and trim; List with zero metacentric height; The Deadweight Scale; The Trim and Stability book; The Calibration book soundings and ullages; Simplified stability information; A trim and stability pro-forma sheet; Linking Ship Stability and Ship Strength: Bending of beams; Bending of ships; Strength curves for ships; Bending and shear stresses.
