Description
This title covers areas of current interest in the design, construction and operation of ships, offshore structures and ports. It includes topics such as computer-aided design of ships, ship environments and marine power plants. It also looks at trends in design methodology, safety of bulk carriers, arctic transportation, advanced marine vehicles and the problem of river bank erosion by inland waterways vessels.
