Gates Publisher: Gulf Publishing Company Edition: 1st ISBN: 0-87201-471-1 Format: PDF Quality: OCR without errors Pages count: 152 Description: Here’s a fascinating, informative, and understandable review of the forces and phenomena that cause maritime collisions. In clear, simple language that avoids complex mathematics and scientific jargon, this concise guide describes the engineering principles and dynamics affecting vessels in navigation channels. It presents and explains the fundamentals so that attorneys, port authorities, seamen, government officials, and port designers/engineers can better understand how and why vessels collide with objects and other vessels. The book’s forensic approach shows casualty investigators how to determine probable causes and collect data and evidence before they are destroyed by time and the elements. This information gathering and basic understanding of maritime engineering principles help planners foresee hazardous situations and enable engineers to design safer waterways, channels, and harbor facilities. Topics include squat, bank suction and vessel attitude, ship interaction, ship-generated waves, emergency stopping, and design considerations for avoiding maritime casualties.
