The Resistance and Propulsion of Ships is a comprehensive guide to the design and engineering of ships, written by William Frederick Durand and originally published in 1909. The book covers a range of topics related to ship propulsion, including the principles of fluid mechanics, the design of propellers and turbines, and the use of steam and other power sources. Durand also discusses the resistance of ships, including the factors that affect drag and the methods used to reduce it. The book is aimed at naval architects, marine engineers, and anyone involved in the design and construction of ships. It is considered a classic text in the field and is still widely referenced today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
