  • Water Waves and Ship Hydrodynamics

    An Introduction

    by A.J. Hermans ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    In this book an introduction is given to aspects of water waves that play a role in ship hydrodynamics and offshore engineering. At first the equations and linearized boundary conditions are derived describing the non-viscous free surface water waves, with special attention to the combination of steady and non-steady flow fields. Then some simple kinds of free wave solutions are derived, such as ... Read more

  • Structural Shell Analysis

    Understanding and Application

    by Johan Blaauwendraad, Jeroen H. Hoefakker ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    The mathematical description of the properties of a shell is much more elaborate than those of beam and plate structures. Therefore many engineers and architects are unacquainted with aspects of shell behaviour and design, and are not familiar with sufficiently reliable shell theories for the different shell types as derived in the middle of the 20th century. Rather than contributing to theory ... Read more
