Boundary Layer Flow over Elastic Surfaces

Compliant Surfaces and Combined Methods for Marine Vessel Drag Reduction

by Ho-Hwan Chun, Inwon Lee, Viktor V. Babenko ...

While other methods of drag reduction are well-known in marine R&D and ship design environments worldwide, compliant coating drag reduction remains less well-known and poorly understood. This important book presents cutting-edge techniques and findings from research sources not generally accessible by Western researchers and engineers, aiding the application and further development of this ...

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
