Websupported text Questions provided in chapters with answers on the web Covers wellestablished methods as well as the newest numerical proceduresin the area of ship hydrodynamicsThe author has provided the reader with comprehensive coverage of shiphydrodynamics with a focus on numerical methods now in use. The book is dividedinto seven chapters. Chapter one contains an overview of problems andapproaches including the basics of model and full scale testing. Anintroduction to computational fluid dynamics is given including a discussionof applications. The next four chapters cover the subjects propellersresistance and propulsion seakeeping and manoeuvring. These chapters presentbasic methods such as model testing extrapolation to full scale andprocedures for design. Substantial parts of each chapter include numericalmethods and their applications. The last two chapters are devoted to boundaryelement methods for resistance and seakeeping. «
