Year: 1982 Language: english Author: Thomas C Gillmer Genre: Textbook Publisher: Naval Institute Press ISBN: 0870213180 Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages + text layer Pages count: 351 Description: This textbook has been prepared to satisfy the educational requirements of the Naval Systems Engineering Department at the U.S. Naval Academy. The department offers two third-class (sophomore-level) courses that teach engineering fundamentals of naval architecture, especially those connected with naval ship design. A four-semester-hour course. Naval Engineering I, is taught to most of the non-engineering majors at the Naval Academy whose background includes chemistry, physics, and mathematics through differential equations. Because these students have not had the engineering fundamentals courses, this textbook contains a brief summary of engineering statics (chapter 2), engineering materials (chapter 4), the strength of materials (chapter 5), and fluid mechanics (chapter 11). A three semester-hour course. Introduction to Naval Systems Engineering is taught to majors in ocean engineering and marine engineering to give them a background in naval architecture and to acquaint them with aspects of engineering design early in the curriculum. It is hoped that this text will satisfy the requirements of other institutions that cover this subject matter at the sophomore level. Engineering majors can skip sections of chapters 2, 4, and 5, if they have already had courses covering this material, in order to complete most of the book during a three-semester-hour course. The text does not attempt to exhaust the subject of naval architecture. The general design of merchant ships, cargo-handling equipment, and habitability systems, as well as costing and contracting, computer-aided ship design, ship construction, launching, trials preparation, and delivery are omitted from the text. These subjects are extensively covered in a SNAME publication. Ship Design and Construction, to which this book frequently refers. The text makes extensive use of material from Modern Ship Design by Professor Thomas Gillmer. Professor Bruce Johnson has contributed a considerable amount of new material, including example problems. Because of the desired 1982 publication date, there was insufficient time to convert existing material to dual English-metric units. This will be accomplished for the second edition of the book. The symbols generally conform to those adopted by the International Towing Tank Conference (ITTC) and the International Ship Structures Conference (ISSC), except in those cases where symbols have not yet been standardized or where certain symbols have been chosen for pedagogical reasons. Professor Johnson is currently responsible for updating the international standard symbol list as a member of the Information Committee for the Nineteenth ITTC, which will meet in 1984.
