Description

Basic Ship Theory, Fifth Edition, by Rawson and Tupper, serves as the standard introductory text for naval architecture students and a reliable reference for experienced designers. Since its first publication in 1968, this work has maintained its reputation for providing a clear balance between theoretical principles and practical application. This comprehensive resource is divided into two volumes to cover the essential aspects of marine design. Volume 1 focuses on fundamental concepts including ship geometry, measurement, structural strength, flotation, trim, and stability. It also addresses vital safety issues related to vessel design. Volume 2 moves into more advanced territory, exploring the dynamic behavior of marine vehicles. It covers hydrodynamics, manoeuvrability, and seakeeping to provide a complete understanding of how ships interact with their environment. Whether you are beginning your studies in naval architecture or looking for a dependable professional reference, this fifth edition provides the foundational knowledge required for the field.
