Book synopsis

The coursekeeping and maneuvering requirements for a ship are governed by international maritime law. In assessing and predicting the coursekeeping and maneuvering capabilities of the ship, knowledge is required of the rudder forces necessary to keep a course or facilitate a maneuver. Marine Rudders, Hydrofoils and Control Surfaces: Principles, Data, Design and Applications, Second Edition includes up-to-date data and rudder design techniques which enable the rudder forces to be estimated, together with any interactions due to the hull and propeller. The professional will also face the need to design control surfaces for motion control, such as roll and pitch, for surface vessels and submersibles, and the book contains the necessary techniques and data to carry out these tasks.  The new edition also describes the design and application of hydrofoils including shape adaptive design, and their applications including hydrofoil craft, yachts and kite surfing hydrofoils. This book is for practicing naval architects and marine engineers, small craft designers, yacht designers, hydrodynamicists, undergraduate and postgraduate students of naval architecture, ship science and the broader engineering sciences, as well as the broader engineering community involved in development of marine craft that rely on the generation of ‘lift’ such as control engineers and aerodynamicists. Describes techniques for analyzing the performance characteristics of rudders, hydrofoils and control surfacesIncludes extensive data and worked examples for the analysis of rudder, hydrofoil and control surface performanceProvides a detailed examination of the design of hydrofoils
