Hardcover. Condition: good. Third Printing. 242 pages. Volume.2 only, illus. bibliography, index. Name of previous owner present. Boards somewhat worn and soiled. Volume II focuses on the motion of ships among waves, propulsion, propellers, and steering. This is an important work in that it not only provides exceptional technical content, but also reflects the state of knowledge and state of practice during the Second World War.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. New York: The Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers. 1941, 3rd printing. Two-volume set. 28.2cm. Volume I totals xii, [2], 291, [1] pages, while Volume II contains vii, [3], 242, [2] pages. Both volumes include illustrations, diagrams, formulas, footnotes, and symbols. Publisher's dark green cloth with debossed title on front cover and bright gilt titling on spine. Appears to be an unused or lightly used copy showing no wear to covers, tight gutters and all pages crisp and unmarked. An excellent complete set in Fine condition. A comprehensive presentation of the field of naval architecture in a single reference. Practical problems and data tables are used throughout to clarify key concepts, with a particular emphasis on merchant ships. Standard symbols are consistently used, closely adhering to American practice. Abbreviations follow those approved by the American Standards Association. Volume I primarily explores the statics of naval architecture, including chapters on the geometry of ships, freeboard, tonnage and capacity, transverse stability, longitudinal stability and trim, and subdivision of ships. Volume II shifts focus to the dynamics of naval architecture, covering topics such as ship strength, launching, motion of ships, resistance and powering, propulsion and propellers, and steering. Naval architecture, also known as naval engineering, is a branch of vehicle engineering that incorporates elements of mechanical, electrical, electronic, software, and safety engineering. This discipline applies these principles to the design, construction, maintenance, and operation of marine vessels and structures. The discipline also involves establishing safety regulations, developing damage-control rules, and ensuring that ship designs conform to both statutory and non-statutory requirements for approval and certification. Key activities include basic and applied research, design and development, evaluation and classification, and performing calculations at every stage of a vessel's life cycle?from preliminary and detailed design to construction, trials, operation, maintenance, launching, and dry-docking. Calculations are also crucial for vessels undergoing modification, such as conversions, rebuilds, modernization, or repairs.

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Sixth printing [stated]. Two volume set. Covers has slight wear and soiling. Volume I: xii, [2], 291, [1] pages. Volume II: vii, [3], 242, [2] pages. Illustrations. Diagrams, Formulae. Footnotes. Symbols. The purpose of this work was to cover adequately the field of naval architecture in one text. The discussion is illustrated by practical problems and tables of date. Throughout the work emphasis has been placed on the merchant ship. Volume I deals largely with the statics of naval architecture. Volume II deals with the dynamics of naval architecture. standard symbols are used throughout the text and these closely follow American practice. The abbreviations are those approved by the American Standards Association. Among the chapter topics are: Geometry of the Ship, Freeboard, Tonnage and Capacity, Traverse Stability, Longitudinal Stability and Trim, Subdivision of Ships, Strength of Ships, Launching, Motion of Ships, Resistance and Powering, Propulsion and Propellers, and Steering. Naval architecture, or naval engineering, along with automotive engineering and aerospace engineering, is an engineering discipline branch of vehicle engineering, incorporating elements of mechanical, electrical, electronic, software and safety engineering as applied to the engineering design process, shipbuilding, maintenance, and operation of marine vessels and structures.[1][2] Naval architecture involves basic and applied research, design, development, design evaluation (classification) and calculations during all stages of the life of a marine vehicle. Preliminary design of the vessel, its detailed design, construction, trials, operation and maintenance, launching and dry-docking are the main activities involved. Ship design calculations are also required for ships being modified (by means of conversion, rebuilding, modernization, or repair). Naval architecture also involves formulation of safety regulations and damage-control rules and the approval and certification of ship designs to meet statutory and non-statutory requirements.
