The book explores the principles of ship resistance and propulsion, providing a detailed analysis of the various factors that affect a ship's performance in water. It covers topics such as the calculation of resistance, the design of propellers, the influence of waves and currents, and the use of steam engines and turbines for propulsion. The book also includes a historical overview of shipbuilding and naval architecture, as well as numerous illustrations and diagrams to aid in the understanding of the concepts discussed. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the science of shipbuilding and the mechanics of naval engineering.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
